What This Blind Dad Did For His Daughter Is Lovely

 

Did you love climbing trees as a child? Maybe you still enjoy it? Whatever your situation, those tree climbing fun filled days are ones which mean a lot to all of us. Do you remember your favorite tree to climb? We certainly remember ours, and when we read about what this blind dad did for his daughter when the tree she loved was cut down, our hearts simply melted. He wanted to create a special lasting memory of the tree for her, so they both got to thinking and came up with this amazing project: the climbing tree coffee table!
