November 8th . . . hand made

 These special hand prints are 20 and 25 years old.  They were my Mother's Day gifts when Luke and Jacob were in kindergarten.  They were packed away for awhile after we moved, but now they hang in my craft room . . . which tends to catch all the things that are the most sentimental to me.  I noticed them as I was turning off the light last night and thought they would be perfect for my "handmade" Sweet November post. 

I also have these wood hands that Richard cut out after I traced around the boys' hands around the same time.  I like how they look with the Fall colors that I have out . . . and what perfect reminders this time of year of something I am Thankful for . . . my two wonderful sons.
