I have to brag for just a moment. My husband made me this beautiful box for Valentine's Day. It is made from scraps of bubinga wood that were given to him by a friend. The heart inlay was made from the dogwood tree that grew on our front lawn before we had to cut it down a couple of years ago. He even sketched out the heart shape himself. And if that weren't enough, he bought some buttons on ebay and filled it up! I have been sick for four days now with no end in sight at the moment so this really made my day. I am off to the doctor's now for a bronchitis check. Is it strange that I am almost hoping I have bronchitis because then I can get some medicine at least?
That is the sweetest Valentines gift ever. I am a little bit jealous, I must admit (rarely does anything happen here for the 14th - especially not this thoughtful!!). I just love your special new box.
