TALE TELL HANDS AND EYES

Koltn and Grandpa's hands. 2/2002
10 years later
Lincoln and Grandpa's hands. 5/31/2010
We love our Grandpa's hands. They have so much character. They are old and wrinkly, tattered and torn, calloused and bruised, all scarred up and tough,
And yet, they touch us all so softly.
and
These eyes
have seen it all.
Good, bad, happy and sad.
They show the struggles of a hard working man.
We can always find strength and courage and peace in those eyes.
Grandpa, please tell us of all the things they have seen.
We love to hear the stories!
