I love reading everyone's stories and would have sorely missed it.<br /><br />Your box is lovely and such great memories it holds for you. I love the fact that the not so small one loved your bracelet enough to wear it.<br />I'm looking forward to reading about more of your precious things - now off to catch up and read the rest of the stories.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328228070357271563.post-48610160261440407512013-01-10T17:19:02.133+00:002013-01-10T17:19:02.133+00:00aaah, sweet!
