Little hands playing hard, grasping, grabbing and turning
Little hands exploring things, practicing and learning
Little hands that do things that maybe they shouldn’t do
Ripping and drawing, messing up, learning like me and you
Little hands holding mine, gripping with such affection
Little hands trusting me, strengthening our connection
Little hands getting dirty, investigating outside
Little hands getting stronger, letting children expand their minds
Little hands creating, covered up with paint and glue
Little hands imagining and designing something new
Little hands gripping, pulling little bodies up high
Little hands giving confidence, just as if they could reach the sky
Little hands eating, taking food up to mouths so small
Little hands working to allow bodies to grow up tall
Little hands loving, gently holding precious things
Little hands looking after and enjoying what new life brings
Little hands lying still, all cosy in their bed
Little hands so quiet and calm, resting by a little head
Little hands that one day won’t be so very small
Little hands that grow and change, right in front of us all
Little hands that I treasure, holding on while I have the chance
Little hands that swing and twirl, sharing in another dance
Little hands and little hearts, children that I adore
Little hands and little smiles
Little girls that make my heart soar
