Happy Mother's Day!
Last year at this time we'd been living in the house just under a month and our concrete walk was poured that very day. We chose to mark our handprints in it as a remembrance of all the work that went into the house.
We started at the east end of the walk. I remember Smiley's hands were so light you had to press extra hard on them. By the way, Lisa would kill me if I failed to mention she's nearly six months pregnant in these pictures.
We gave up on that spot, deciding the cement was already too set. A faint imprint remains, however.
We moved on to a spot closer to the front of the house.
Lu was out and about with her Grandma and returned to join the party.
The final result?
What a great idea. You will cherish that as the kids get older.

We made stepping stones for Grandma's garden one year when all the grandkids were still young. :) It's fun to see how much the kids have grown since then.

Thanks for sharing you imprints :o) If you ever move, you will need to take the whole slab.
