Everybody needs a Jay!

"I need a Jay!". If I had a penny for every time I have heard this, I could buy the Taj Mahal! I totally agree but you can't have this one.

I have been a very sad someone for a while. You see, I lost my precious Daddy. It has shaken my world. In the midst of my sadness, dear sweet Jay took a very sad day and made me a smile more than he could ever imagine.

I always have project after project on Jay's proverbial to-do list and I had been concocting a bed swing to put behind our new grain bin. It kept getting delayed. Until now...


He welded together some old iron beds, built a shade arbor topped off with rusty old bed springs, and then wired this beautiful chandelier to twinkle sweetly with the stars! I love it so much. Isn't it wonderful!

 


Come by and swing with us! Just remember, you can't have Jay.

Thank you, Jay. You turned a river of tears into a waterfall of happiness.
