isn't that sad? I hope she didn't see it at their garage sale. Like it had no value because it was the inlaws who made it. I hope that didn't hurt her husbands feelings :( If someone ever made something for me I would display it proud!

And yes she does have great empathy! I think maybe because she has seen how long it takes mommy to make her a quilt she can picture someone sitting there making that only for it to end up in a thrift store :(
