Preserved -- for all posterity.
What does that mean?
The kiddos have their hand prints preserved in fresh cement.
I am going to cherish this.
They say time flies... this is my attempt to hold back time.

ReplyDeleteGood morning Jennifer! Hey, I looked up "posterity" in the "American Dictionary of the English Language," Noah Webster, 1828:
ReplyDeletePOSTER'ITY, n. [Fr. posterite'; L. posteritas, from posterus, from post, after.]
1. Descendants; children, children's children, &c. indefinitely; the race that porceeds from a progenitor. The whole human race are the posterity of Adam.
2. In a general sense, succeeding generations; opposed to ancestors.
"To the unhappy that unjustly bleed,
Heav'n gives posterity t' avenge the deed." ~Pope
I love that dictionary!!
ReplyDeleteSo -- I'm saving those hand prints so my grandchildren can see them. ;) Wouldn't that be fun?
We poured wet cement over the last families initials... don't tell them. My mommy heart felt bad about that... my dh's manly heart didn't give a hoot!
THAT is awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteNow you can measure their growth in the coming years (for teens, weeks)! :-)
