Becky's most recent creation was a gift for Harper's first birthday. I remember opening the gift at Harper's party, and I simply welled up with tears. Not only is the doll beautiful and lovely, but she is deeply sentimental. Becky used leftover fabric from my wedding reception to make the doll's outfit. Harper's name is stitched near the hem of the dress, and I Love You is stitched on the heart. The doll is absolutely special, so much so that my husband suggested we place the doll out of the kids' reach for fear they might destroy it. But watching Harper drag the life size doll around by her hand is one of the most adorable sights I've ever seen.






Matt and I are so blessed to have moms who love on our children in this way. I only wish the kids understood how special it is to receive something that is crafted with such love. I cherish these gifts, and I suspect that in time, so will my kids.

I watched you open that doll, and I'm pretty sure the sheer JOY on your face was a gift in itself to your sweet mama-in-law. She's a-MA-zing.
