HE hasn't seen it yet. I still have to bind it. I want to give it to him when it is binded. Thanks for your kind words.

Thank you!

It is funny. When I was pregnant with Preston I thought we would never be able to name him. We couldn't agree on a name and nothing was sticking. Then one day I came across the name Preston ...and I thought oh that sounds nice. Then I waited all day to tell my husband and as soon as he heard it he said .." That's it" That's his name. We never wavered...I love his name.
Thank you.

Great job Mommy! How sweet your son wanted you to make a sign for over the turtle tank. It's cute.

HI lally,
Thanks so much. That wasn't a print actually. I cut all those little pieces on and fused them. That way it would look kind of mosaic.
