Always sign and date your labors of love. I have homemade ornaments from many years ago. Some aren't signed and it's sad not to remember who took the time to create their "labor of love".

I love to crochet and all the old pattern books/magazines excite me when I would find them at garage sales. They are musty, mildewy, who knows what has crawled over, in and through them? Some of the books you don't even want to touch, but if you're like me, you can't keep your fingers off or out of them.
I'm looking for a craft for my 5 year old to make to take to the local assistant living facility. My grandfather had a stroke 2 years ago and he loved when my son try's to help him and visit during his recovery over 14 hours away! I want to continue to teach my son to care for others, giving, and hopefully bringing light to another's heart. Anyone has any ideas for him to make and hand out? Thanks
