my husbands hands

my husband's hands

These hands are riddled with history.  They have played games as a child with neighborhood friends.  They are hands of an athlete.  These are hands of a brother who loves his family.  These hands have held 4 children at birth and continue to embrace them during their lives.  These hands have laid dear parents to rest.  They are working hands, of Irish and German heritage.  They are strong hands.  These hands have fought in 3 wars in defense of the United States of America, his beloved country.  They are honest hands.   They are loving hands.  They are married hands.  These hands belong to a man of integrity.
