Mother's Day gifts

Aaron and Jordan brought home these amazing Mother's Day gifts from school. Jordan's is a self-portrait, a concept which I happen to know they have been working on for some time. He said, "It's even painted under the picture, Mommy," and pointed out to me that he had made eyelashes, and that the eyes have the dots in them (pupils) but they are covered by the blue.



Aaron made handprints, and chose the colors for the paint, and showed his hands for pictures.



The poem is an excerpt from something by Robert L. Hinshaw, which starts out "In this restless realm can there be any greater demands/Than those entrusted to a mother's affectionate hands?" Well, their teachers are right up there, is what I say. They are amazing for facilitating these works.
