Sometimes you get discouraged,
because I am so small
And leave my little fingerprints
On furniture and walls.
But everyday I'm growing
And soon will be so tall
That all these little fingerprints
Will be difficult to recall.
So here's a little handprint
That you can put away
So you will know how my fingers looked
On this special day.

I see fingerprints on my window
And smudgy kisses on the door
And I press my hand to touch them
As I've done so many times before

And all through my house a presence
To me it is so dear
With little fingerprints left behind
Along with laughter I still hear

For everywhere that they have touched
And left a telltale sign
Again I place my fingers there
Then In my heart I whisper they are mine

And in that moment of love so pure
God's fingerprints are revealed
Permanently on my heart and soul
With Him my life is sealed

To God we must be as a child
Our fingerprints are His design
As we read and study His Word
Then He whispers you are mine

And reluctantly I wash away
Signs of love that said so much
Sparkling windows looking back at me
I remember their innocent touch

But they will come again to me
Leaving fingerprints on my heart
As I read His Word the gift of love
Where my fingerprints came from the start

And I am so so thankful
Could I possibly ask for more
Little fingerprints on my window
Smudgy kisses on my door
.......................................................
Sometimes you get discouraged because I am so small,
And always leave my fingerprints on furniture and walls.
But everyday I'm growing. I'll be full grown someday,
And all those tiny fingerprints will surely fade away.
So here's a final handprint, just so you will recall,
Exactly how my fingers looked when I was very small
........................................................
It would help if you could give us an author or maybe tell us any parts you might remember

Is it one of these two?

1)
I miss you when we're not together
I'm growing up so fast
See how big I've gotten
Since you saw me last?
As I grow, I'll change a lot,
The years will fly right by.
You'll wonder how I grew so quick
When and where and why?
So look upon this handprint (these handprints)
That's hanging on your wall.
And memories will come back of me,
When I was very small.

2)
Sometimes you get discouraged
Because I am so small
And always leave my fingerprints
On furniture and walls.

But every day I'm growing -
I'll be grown some day
And all those tiny handprints
Will surely fade away.

So here's a little handprint
Just so you can recall
Exactly how my fingers looked
When I was very small.

Footprints in the Sand - The Poem

by Mary Stevenson

One night a man had a dream. He dreamed
he was walking along the beach with the LORD.

Across the sky flashed scenes from his life.
For each scene he noticed two sets of
footprints in the sand: one belonging
to him, and the other to the LORD.

When the last scene of his life flashed before him,
he looked back at the footprints in the sand.

He noticed that many times along the path of
his life there was only one set of footprints.

He also noticed that it happened at the very
lowest and saddest times in his life.

This really bothered him and he
questioned the LORD about it:

"LORD, you said that once I decided to follow
you, you'd walk with me all the way.
But I have noticed that during the most
troublesome times in my life,
there is only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why when
I needed you most you would leave me."

The LORD replied:

"My son, my precious child,
I love you and I would never leave you.
During your times of trial and suffering,
when you see only one set of footprints,
it was then that I carried you."
