At the end of the school year, our staff received Amazon gift cards from the school as a thank you. Amazon carries my favorite puzzle brand, and I decided to check out what might be available. As soon as I saw this puzzle, I immediately added it to my cart and knew that I had to have it. Not only did I love the colors and the theme, but my Dad's name was Bob. And if any man would have ever been the kind to own a hardware store, it was him. As I told my boss one day recently, he could fix absolutely anything.
Putting this puzzle together brought me such joy, but in all honesty, it also brought a few tears. I miss my dad so much, but I'm so grateful his suffering ended when it did. I know my dad was truly a special man, and I loved feeling him with me while I put this puzzle together. I had thought about gluing it together and keeping it permanently, but I had so much fun putting it together I decided to take it apart, and maybe next year I'll enjoy it again!
