The other day I found one of my mom's jewelry boxes from when she was a young girl. It's been packed away for a long time and it was one of those moments where I took my time to look at each item: religious medals, a couple pair of screw-on enamel earrings, a 1949 class ring, her Salutatorian medal from high school, a stopwatch, an ID bracelet, thimbles, brooches, and a sweet note from her brother before he left to attend law school. He was seven years older than she was. He was a teaser, she was feisty, and with their age difference they knew how to get on each other's nerves. In the end, love won out. Such a sweet big brother to little sister love letter.

ReplyDeleteSweet memories, little bits and pieces of the past.
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful memories in a little box.
ReplyDeleteI was going to say something about memories but your previous commenters have beat me to it. So I will just echo their thoughts.
