Susan,
Your observations are NEVER boring and ALWAYS thought provoking. Isn't it amazing that "times" have changed so much in our lifetime and now many things that were off limits for us girls just a few decades ago are now taken for granted. Even in my carving experience of almost 20 years, there were few women trying it in my neck of the woods. Now our little club has almost as many women as men.

Thank you for sharing your AHA moment. It touched my heart and I envy you the joy of having that special moment with your hubby. If guys only knew how little it takes to make our hearts sing.

Donna

And Colin, I can just vision you grinning and carving--just to make another child happy with the treasure you made for them.
