Before I was added, there were concrete blocks which led up
to the house. The beautiful Spring day I was created, the people I came to know
as the grandparents came over. Before I
had set and dried, each one of the children in the family placed their hands in
my jelly-like surface. Then a skinny little stick was used to etch each of
their names—Travis, Haley, and Lauren—under each of their little handprints.
Someone made the comment that they were now immortalized; as long as I
remained, their names would be as well. That comment made me feel pretty
important and like part of the family! I now had a responsibility to these
giggly, happy little children!
