Default a Sweet Find

Hello All! I was just cleaning out a bit and I found something that had fallen behind my bed...for shame for shame!!!
This sweet little Fella Is from my husband. He never finished him, but he carved him for me. It was the first and only thing he has ever even begun to carve. It is also the first thing he has ever made me, besides breakfast once and 2 boys.
It is my cherished thing. How it got where it was I can only imagine. I am guessing it was my youngest playing with him last.
I just had to share. I thought if anyone will be interested besides me, they will be on here! Thanx!
Oh-notice the grain is going the wrong way? what a sweety!

He is cute. Maybe you should mount him on the bed frame so he can watch over you while you sleep.:>)

Cute, indeed! Sometimes the "unfinished " just strikes a chord in the heart. I think I'd make up a small shadow box with a nice crimson felt background for him/her, and find a special place to hang it.

What a wonderful find. You will cherish that little fella the rest of your life and reflect back on the moment that he came back to life. I would however, ya spend less time carvin and clean under the bed once or twice a year (dust bunnies you know) ROTFLMAO.
