Great story. However, it reminds me of the quote from some wise person (unfortunately, I don't know who) New parents spend the first 2 years teaching their children to walk and talk and the next 16 years trying to get them to sit down and shut up. LOL

that is a wonderful story!! Thanks for sharing it.
My daughter teaches special needs children, and I'm thinking about making her an I SPY quilt for her classroom, now. Thanks for the inspiration.
