That is really assume. Great gift. I'm sure you will give that a place of honor. Looks like you have someone else to help you with your bike project along with your "mom".  ;D ;D ;D

Oh yea - Happy birthday.

That's just beautiful.  That girl sure is showing the love.  She knows how to make her Dad happy.  Good work bonding with her on the motorcycle stuff.

Our kids just love that stuff, and it means so much to them to be an important part of our lives.

That's a cool gift indeed. She used her welding skills to make something for you that you would like. I bet had she been a boy he would have made a beer can holder instead of a candle holder....  ;D



These kind of gifts are the ones that are always remembered, more than any other goodie bought at a shopping mall. Happy birthday!

Very nice! and happy belated...

My girls are a little young for the welder...5 and 8 although my youngest would be more than happy to burn the garage down I am sure...she's a little terror! Can't imagine where she gets it from...must be her mom!  ::)

Not to make light of all of the HB thought... Tell her to crank sum dem puppies out! Great holiday gifts! Sets! 8 for Chaunnikah, Hannuka, Chaka Kahn, Hey its dark. Big ones for the table, small ones for the hearth, emergency lighting systems for Lucas equipped bikes ( wind screen and matches sold seprately). Doorstops! Picture holders! Dog house warmers (look honey I got you the 750 basket case!). Outhouse lights. Toast warmers.
Better a student who can weld, than one who cannot.
Better to have a plumber who knows greek........

Great gift. Grand memory. That boy friend she will bring home in her late twenties ( I pray this for you and all) to introduce, they will see that, he will make a comment, she will brush it off, he will be amazed and you will still be as proud, and he will see that in your eyes, and understand.

And that is how she made her first Million by 16.  ;D
