Ok, so I am sure all of you military wives can feel my pain here. Clayton has been collecting old uniforms for, well I'll be nice and say a while now. He has all along been telling me that he was going to use them and "make" something out of them. My thoughts, "Blah!! Before we move I will throw them away one day and hopefully he won't notice. Seriously, who needs this many old uniforms??" Well, then early in the winter he ended up buying a pack frame and tells me that he isn't going to buy a pack because he doesn't really like them and wants to build his own. What?! Am I supposed to be supportive here? Or do I tell him no because I am really thinking he is crazy because I know he'll never do it! I chose to be supportive, though I didn't believe him at all. One month later, with a whole lot of sewing in the evenings, here he is with his pride and joy! AND, it is all the right dimensions, with all the right pockets and loops and everything else he wanted but couldn't find. AND, to my happiness the uniform pile is all gone! Sooo, with my tail all the way between my legs, I am saying how proud I am AND I'm sorry for doubting his mad skills! He really is good at everything he does. Now if only he could share a little of that gift....
