Still not it

My son's birthday is next Friday and I'm still not feeling that this is the birthday card that I want for him.  I think this Bugaboo Sean is adorable, but not the "right" one.  Doesn't that just drive you nuts when you start with an idea, but then it just doesn't feel the way you want when it is completed.  Maybe I'm just trying too hard since he is in this difficult age of not being a kid, but not yet an adult.  Ugggh!
