That is a cute idea! You are such a good mom, what a lucky missionary Caleb is!
This is awesome! You really did a great job and he got a lot of good stuff.
Thanks for your kind words Nancy. I had so much fun with this.
Thanks Heidi. I had a lot of fun doing this. It took MUCH longer than I ever expected to. It went from being a simple cute/fun thing I was going to do for him to a crazy over 20 hour project, but it was worth every minute and I will do it again for each missionary that goes from our immediate family.
I meant to comment on this yesterday--I think this is such a great idea and I am sure you made his Christmas such a fun one! You are such a great mom. This took so much thought and shows how much you want to make his Christmas great. And, his guesses are funny...
That was a pretty amazing thing you did, Michelle! And Caleb's answers were pretty amazing as well! (Now we know where he got his sense of humor and amazing personality from!) YOU ROCK, MICHELLE!!! (and I definitely knew what those twixit clips were you sent! Use mine all the time!)
