Embracing the Best
There are things in our lives that strike a chord in our hearts.
Things that connect us to places, people and time.
I was struck once again by Jacqueline
at
Cabin & Cottage’s post last week
I am very sentimental and keep things that remind me
of people, places and times gone by.
These are my treasures.
these are some of my treasures that are of sentimental meaning to me |
my great-grandfather gave gold coins to my dad, who in turn gave them to his children |
this butterfly jewelry box was given to me by my son who purchased this in Costa Rica while serving on a mission trip |
one of the sweet-thoughtful gifts from my husband |
one of my mother's strand of pearls along with the first bottle of delicious perfume my husband bought for me |
this is another strand of pearls from my mother and her cocktail ring |
a silver and pewter letter opener and a coin purse that my were my great-grandfathers |
a silver spoon that was my grandmothers |
a portrait of my great-great grandmother - she and I have quite a lot of the same features wish I had her thick hair! |
But, what would I consider the best things in life
My relationship with God
My Dearest Husband
My Darling Children
Family & Friends
And those things that add
to our lives
I love how Victoria touches the best in the heart of a woman.
Recognizing and celebrating femininity.
I gathered a few things throughout my house
Treasures – mementos
that cause me to pause and to cherish-embrace
The Best Things in Life
