Lee:

I’m guessing that these pictures were not taken 6 years ago. So it must mean that the test of time has been good with your construction techniques.

I nice looking toy. You and your son have completed a great model.

Nice work Lee. With all the other stuff you have going on, when did you have time to work on it?

I think just making that toy was peanuts, compared to the relationship you built with your son.

I bet you could have built two Windsor chairs in the same amount of time it took for this..
