As I mentioned previously, Bryan gave us my favorite present this year. A couple weeks ago, I had asked him how difficult it would be to make a hope chest for Xavier. I have kept so many things in a drawer that I want to keep forever. Things like the blanket my grandma Austin made him before she passed, his first outfit, the hats he wore in the hospital, his pilot wings from his first flight, etc.
Well, Bryan took off with this idea and made it a reality. The only input I had was the stain color. I knew that he would make a chest much better than one that I could have found. And I was right. I cried when I saw how beautiful it turned out. It is precious and a piece of furniture that Beanie will have FOREVER. He will pass it down to his babies and their babies :)
