Treasures

Day 07 - A picture of your most treasured item

I have thought and thought about this. There aren't many items that I treasure. There are people and memories and Jackson that I greatly treasure, but none of those are items. Most of the items I own can be replaced when it comes down to it, like my car or my laptop for instance. I've came up with three items that I really treasure though, after much thought. Things that if something were to happen to, I'd be devastated.

The first item is a necklace from my dad. I'm wearing it in the photo below. It's a silver necklace with a diamond filled heart shaped pendant on it. He gave it to me on Valentine's Day when I was 13. My dad is not a shopper and because he went to the jewelry store and picked it out himself, it means more to me than he'll ever know. I love my daddy.



The second is a note to me from my Papa. I don't have a photo of it because it's at my parents' house, but it's a precious note. We don't have many things that he's written because my grandmother always writes in birthday cards and things like that. It's such a sweet, generous note, and so my Papa. I'll treasure it always.

Thirdly is this mood ring. It was my great-grandmother's (from the previous post). I remember always going through her things and how I was always drawn to this ring. One day she told me to go get it and that she wanted me to have it. I love that it's vintage and simple. I can't tell you how much I love it and how much it means to me.
