Later on, he came back and handed me a piece of paper. He said that was my receipt for a tax write off for a donation. When I opened it up, it read PRICELESS!
Ahhh...that's so sweet coming from a brother. And, your quilt looks great!

That's one of the best stories I've heard!!! If your brother is single, he shouldn't be for long, I just hope he finds a girl as nice as he is!!
