After I made it, I wondered if it was too much. I tried not to watch her too closely when she opened it. She loved it and was so happily touched and overwhelmed. Since then, our relationship has become closer and I am very glad I decided to give it to her after all. I think we sometimes wonder how people will accept the gifts we make. Give it with joy and generosity. It is beautiful and thoughtful and will be accepted that way. Share your gift!Aidan's Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01163369025704767530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4800978518990634193.post-29789811437761723402013-11-26T13:05:07.103+11:002013-11-26T13:05:07.103+11:00The quilt is gorgeous!

Nice of you.<br />My son is now 18 and is finishing up with school. Time flies once they go to high school. Now its off to Music College for the next 3 years.
