THANKS, Paula! Yeah, I am doing a Papi book. Vicky (Gypsy & Me) is going to help me make a "virtual" version so it can be shared in its entirety once it has gone out to Papi.
Appreciate the offer, but I am very nearly there. (The Michaels trip last night got the last of what I was needing.) I am planning to mail it Thursday morning so it can get to him by his b-day next Tuesday.
I'm like you -- I have tons of stuff so this has been a great opportunity to make me turn loose of some of it.
I have been doing books for a few years now as gifts. When my high school friends (there is a gang of 8) started turning 40 a few years ago, I did a book for each one of them. They all had a common start but each was personalized with pix of them from HS through present. I kind of told a little story about each one.
That's what I did with Papi's book. It's a story about his coming to YorkieTalk, what brought him there -- and the train to bring him PC.
