Grandpa's Gift

When I was a child, my father made a rocking horse for my sister, brother and me.  Then, when all three of us had our own children, our kids rode the horse too.  The rocking horse now resides with my niece.  We asked her if we could borrow it to make a pattern from it.  My husband traced the pattern pieces, cut, sanded and painted the wood.  If you ask me, I think it turned out awesome!  This new rocking horse will hopefully be an heirloom to a new generation.
