Legoboy's Contributions to the Family Business: Raised Surface Maps of Israel

Any orders of topographical maps (raised surface maps) of Israel that shipped between November 1 and February 15, had some step worked on by Legoboy; this includes the map he delivered to the mailbox on November 16 - that I had to give the mailman the following Monday.

Many were hand-traced by him or had the form glued down before I laid down the plaster cloth. He traced all the rectangle outlines for me to cut and he helped sand a few.


Legoboy's Contributions to the Family Business: Three Dimensional Scripture Figures

Legoboy, my beautiful Joshua, has contributed so much over the years to our family businesses.

He has helped design products, tested products, worked on various stages of the making of physical items. From the beginning he has always taken care of all mail delivery (to the mailbox or going into the post office) and pick-up.

His appearance in our Keys of the Universe videos was on a contract basis.

He was setting himself up to take over all customer service for Garden of Francis. He would call himself the GoF IHM. Not Immaculate Heart of Mary. Garden of Francis Iron-Hearted Maiden.

We were working together to find a different shade of green for the background on Garden of Francis. He really didn't like it and he thought it was distracting customers, potentially turning some away. We never did get that fixed.

There has been so much more.

Most recently, he financially invested in one portion of our Garden of Francis business: 3 dimensional Scripture figures. The morning he left us, is when the agreement was put into place and the investment made.

The materials arrived later that week and I finally got everything in place in January.

Here are some samples. I also have a Divine Mercy Jesus, a standing prophet, a seated writing prophet, Bridesmaids oil lamps and flasks (sized to hold birthday candles).
