Wow, that is above and beyond! Congrats on such a great addition to your collection. Please share with the family that they hit a HOMERUN with this gift!

This is truly wonderful!!!!! It's really impressive that many artists drew characters that are closely associated with them. I don't know if your wife specifically requested these or if she just told them to draw characters of their choice, but it is clear that she and your kids knew what they were doing. Best. Gift. Ever.

This is one of the coolest things I have seen. The fact that they took the time to plan this & went to all of the trouble is wonderful. Now I just have to subtly show this to my kids. They have 2 months until my 50th!
