The Locket...

...There are times in your life when you happen upon something special.  I did just that this last Sunday. 
I chose a piece of Mom's jewelry not knowing what to expect. It was a "heart puff" that looked familiar.




I gently picked it up and found the locket latch...I teared up as I opened it and saw a picture of Dad on one side...but the other side was empty.




One of my things I was determined to do this week was to complete the inside of the locket. Today my Dad will once again have my Mom next to him...




This will  be a very special Christmas gift that my Mom has left behind for me. I love and miss you both...
