As Joan Scoggin was saying to Wendy Apgar:

 I can imagine. My mom crocheted me an afghan one year.
 It was the first one she had ever done so it turned
 out rather strangely shaped. I still use it now and then
 though.
 On the other hand, she put some of my x-stitch pictures
 on a childhood theme together with my favorite colors
 in a quilt for me that I just love. Almost feel guilty
 for using it!

 Just think how happy you will be when they go back
 to school!  I have friends who feel exactly the same way
 you do right now!
