What a great and loving birthday gift. You should be very proud of this mom. I always loved and still do gifts from my two. I always loved the homemade ones when they were small. I still have many of them, cards, etc. Happy Birthday to you!

Looks like he's very good with his hands, and brain. Do we have a future male quilter in the making??

Never underestmate when a child asks a question like that. He has done something very good and I hope this will make him see other things he can do useing wood.
