    sewnsewer, Mrs. Mel, bearpaw, gcathie, lorretta:
    Thank you all for your kind words. My grandsons have learned to appreciate the simple things in life so I know they will love these. James, my older one, wants to know if he can sleep on his already. I am blessed.
    amma:
    thank you too. Yes my DDIL told me that when they opened the box they said, "Hey I smell Mammie." I am blessed that she always tells me the everyday things they say and do so I do not feel like I miss too much (even though I know I do). Yes I am far away, too far. I would like to go more often but am fortunate to be able to go once a year and I usually stay for about a month.
    Forgive me if I missed anyone but I want to say thanks for taking the time to write such encouraging things. You all are wonderful people and I appreciate your comments.

    They are great, Penny! The Disco Dinosaur made me laugh -- Both of my sons have that kind of sense of humor and they would have loved something like that when they were younger!

    Debbie:
    Thanks, I made each applique myself from my own design. It was my first try and it was so much fun.

    Ducky:
    Yes my grandson James is the one who I made the dinosaur quilt for. I did not want to do anything too babyish since he is going to be 11 years old this September. I know he will see the humor in it and love it.
