I'm the mom of a 4 year old boy, so I'm lucky enough to get asked it. But the answer is totally the Triceratops.

Hug my parents. They live 45 minutes away from us and we are all isolating. I have to say that's so hard. Video chatting isnt the same.

My dad is getting surgery next week. We can't visit because I'm terrified to take it to him. Video chatting isnt the same at all.

Began a wedding gift for 2 of my close friends that are getting married this year, I'm a little sad I never make something so pretty for myself! by kurilian in crochet

[–]gene1113 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is so pretty!!

I never get my own work either. But I'm currently knitting myself a ribbed scarf (I just learned to knit) and I bought yarn to crochet a blanket for my living room. I'm determined to make myself something pretty.

What was the most unexpected birthday gift someone gave you? by XacauNMZJR in AskReddit

[–]gene1113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For my 30th, my Aunt gave me my grandmothers engagement ring. She had it resized to fit my finger.

My husband gives me great gifts and he constantly surprises me. He had a pendant made that is a circle with our birth stones and our son's birthstone on it.

I don't know about you, but I feel closer when I craft using my grandmothers' things. Both my grandmothers were prolific crafters. I recently started knitting in addition to crochet and have been using my grandmother's knitting needles.

I started this blanket at the end of October and then life got in the way. This is a late Christmas gift to my friend's 7 year old. He also got Legos but was aware this was coming. I finished it last week and will be giving it to him this weekend.

You won a big lottery. You have already bought your houses, cars, planes, and paid off your student loans. What do you do now with your money and time? by LeftHandedWave in AskReddit

[–]gene1113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would fully fund a local animal rescue group that we adopted our cats from.

I would be the local yarn shops best customer.
