I got it.

I am rocking grand babies as much as time will permit. They are getting a little older but still enjoy getting in my lap and rocking. It is so good for them and just as good for me.

Thank you very much.

Have a very Merry Christmas.

Blessings to you and your family,

Thanks for the email, Gary. Very much enjoying the chair. Beautiful piece. Lovely where it sits in the most prominent spot in our house and comfortable to boot. Thanks for your very careful and precise work. I enjoy it every time I look at the chair. Haven't gotten that first ding just yet. I know it's coming, but for now it still looks like it just came from the shop.

Nap of the rug sends it North a bit, but that's OK.

The whole event inspired me to get my shop back in order. Spent most of Thanksgiving on that project. Had a great time and rediscovered all that stuff I have. I'm not fully back in business yet, but the shop is functional again. Just to prove it I finished a chair I had been neglecting for literally a couple of years.

Looking forward to coming out and visiting again.

Best,

I'm so sorry I didn't get to beat you to the punch with an email . . .
The rocker arrived safe and sound and it's beautiful!!! J. just loves it!
I stopped to see it the other day and it was better than I had hoped.
J.'s wife who is 7 months pregnant found it very comfortable!!
You have been wonderful to work with and we were all so pleased to give our brother a 50th birthday gift he could cherish forever, and use daily!
Take care, and Merry Christmas to you and your family!

Hi Gary. The chair made it's way up here at last. Thank you very much — it's beautiful and was well worth the wait. Already easing her back in the last part of the pregnancy.

Thanks for everything.

Gary, this my latest project using curly maple. Hope you like it. The rocker does not compare to the comfort of the chairs you and Austin make.

Gary,

. . .
By the way, we LOVE our chairs — my husband is 6'7" and I am 5'1" and we have spent countless hours over the last 18 months rocking with our first baby boy. It still amazes me that one chair fits us both so well. I can¹t wait for a footstool to accompany it so we can spend just as much time rocking baby boy #2.

Thanks a million.

Gary,

Thanks so much for your email. Baby L. finally arrived last Thursday. We are over the moon about her, and are very much enjoying rocking her to sleep in the chair, which all of our visitors remark on. We're thrilled with the investment, and look forward to using it for many years to come.

I've attached photos of R. and of my mother both enjoying the chair (and as promised, it works perfectly both for the 6'6" man and the 5'5" woman!).

Thanks again.

Best,
G.

Hi Gary,

I received the chair yesterday and it gathered lots of spectators at work! We were able to fit it in my hatchback for transit home and it's found a temporary home in the middle of our nursery until I can move a bookshelf out of the way. It is just stunning and rocks like a dream. Our little "Peach" (her name for now) and I had a nice rock and read last night before bed. I enjoyed Bela's artwork on the crate lid also, please let her know. Thank you for your work and care in providing us with such a beautiful chair!

More soon,

Gary,

The rocker arrived when it was supposed to with all well, complete with Wiley Mae's art work which made the box the envy of the neighborhood. I arrived (also all well) slightly later than expected and we finally unpacked the rocker late yesterday. It is both beautiful and comfortable and has gotten a lot of rocking in not very many hours. We love it and it looks fabulous in its new home.

Thank you so much!

Dear Gary — the rocker arrived not long after we spoke and I was on the phone with the shipper. It is a gift for my wife from her children. She is thrilled by it, as am I. It would be a great addition to our house even if no one ever sat in it! Just to look at it or touch it brings a smile of pleasure. I'll give you an update on the joy of sitting in it once I gain some experience.

Thanks so much!
