He is the BEST.
This gift is beyond perfect. It's sentimental, silly, unique, romantic, whimsical, specialized, personal, and just amazing. I love that he tackled such a crazy project, I love that Kevy helped make it a spot-on replica, I love that it's unlike anything anyone else has, I love that it pulls our history into the present, that it's not frilly or girly....LOVE.
Throughout the process I did not dig through his stuff in the garage but I did see a few things left around....small boards of various angles, ok, it's a shelving thing....blue paint, um, where would that blue work in our house? A glow in the dark LED flashlight, huh? If he wanted to do lighting in cabinetry he'd at least use something that plugged in. Weather stripping? Outdoor?? I really had no way of knowing until he showed it to me.
It just proves that he knows me better than anyone else does.
LOVE!
