Things I'm thankful for

In honor of Thanksgiving I am going to attempt to post something I'm thankful for each day til Thursday. Today I'm thankful for: BABY FEET


Two little feet, ten little toes,

Leave their impressions today.

Soon they will wear two little shoes,

And be running and jumping at play.

Two little feet, too little time,

Before they are walking to school,

Kicking a rock, or skipping a rope,

Wading a puddle or jumping a pool.

Two little feet, One little child,

Will soon go their own way,

But footprints in my mind recall,

They stood here yesterday.

Don't know who wrote that poem but it fits. I never imagined little feet could leave such big prints on my heart.
