A special gift


My mom tucked away a small package with the rest of the gifts. My boys handed it to me when all the gifts had been opened and it was the last one to be found after rummaging through the piles of gift wrap and bows. In it was this "Willow Tree" box. When I opened it; this little opal necklace was inside. Isn't it sweet? My mom gave this to me to wear for my senior picture almost 28 years ago, but it was just a loaner back then, now it's mine for keeps. I love it.
