to finish it we plan on cutting a heart shape out of 1/4 inch oak plywood, then attach the rose to the from, and He wants to attach magnets to the back so she can hang it in her locker.
we will post pics once it is finished.
For those of you who have never been in this situation (sharing a hobby with a child) you have no idea what this feels like, for me to spend time with my 12 year old son, working with wood, and both of us thoroughly loving what we are doing, it's indescribable. At one point last evening, he stopped working, turned around to look at me and said, "Its awesome to be out here working on this wood stuff with you" then turned around and went right back to work.
Yeah, Im quite the proud pappa right now
