When our children were little, my husband and I often heard the words, “hold on to these days—they pass so quickly.” And now, as a stay-at-home mother of four growing children, I can say with certainty… they were right. Time truly does move swiftly.

 

When our first child was born, we captured her tiny hands and feet in clay at just seven days old. With each new blessing added to our family, so too were more prints added to our walls—each one a reflection of growing love. Every piece holds a beautifully detailed imprint, a snapshot of who they were in that fleeting moment, a small piece of their story preserved in time. These have become some of our most treasured keepsakes. One day, we hope to pass them on to our children as they begin families of their own.

 

We long to hold onto every moment, to treasure each memory along the way. Prints in Clay began in 2011 from that very desire—to help families preserve a piece of their child’s story, and to gently remind us of the blessings we’ve been given.

 

Thank you for allowing me the honor of capturing your little one’s precious prints. I truly look forward to meeting you and your beautiful family. ~ Jamie
