Look what Sophie did — all by herself.

OK, she did have some guidance from her amazing physical therapist, but really, I’m told, she did all the stitching on her own.

“M” for Mommy. (Sorry — Hipstamatic washed out the purple M a bit.) She also did an “S” for Sophie and has plans for “A” (Annabelle) and “D” (Daddy).

One more thing Sophie and I will be able to do together in our old age! (Along with read and get pedicures.) Except that she’s way better than I am. You should see how clean the back of her piece is.
