WHew!!! The sound of relief! Jordan's eagle project is done!!
Kind of-at least the biggest part of it! What an emotional roller coaster that was!! Between getting donations gathered, fliers passed out, building secured, pattern created and tweaked, organizing many great and willing volunteers, keeping calm...these are just a few of the tasks Jordan had to conquer.
I did manage to bug, annoy and nag him along the way :) I actually learned more than I ever thought I would.
I am impressed with how well Jordan managed this project. It was big and crazy! I am equally impressed with the amount of love and generosity shown by family and friends. So many came and helped in ways I didn't think possible. From the darling fabric that was donated, phone calls to see what was needed and those that just jumped in and went to work. Kudos to all of you!!! I love you all!!! Thanks!

I am a loser friend. We had football sign ups that whole day, but I went on Friday and bought fabric, thread, and drawstrings, washed and ironed it, then plain forgot to get it to you. I even had my sewing machine out and ready to go. I am so sorry. I'm glad it turned out so well. I'm impressed you got so many made. Kudos to your boy and to mom!
