A few of my favorite things

Isn't it strange how certain possessions hold such importance and meaning? These are a few of my such "things."

I was thinking the other day about what I would save from a fire. The list got WAY too long. Maybe I am too attached to things?

Here are some from the very top (In no particular order because I am borderline blog-illiterate.) :)






Poncho of my mom's that she wore!









Sammy. My one true love.











Letters from my sister, Amanda. She is in Seattle and I only see her once or twice a year.











Box of my Nana's crafting supplies.






Harry Potter books. (Notice Goblet of Fire is missing? Rich is reading them all :) 









Letter from my college poetry professor on our yearly publication. He writes "Emily, with terrific admiration for a real one."

I have no idea what I would grab in a fire! I get stressed even thinking about it....ha!

Note: I think it is great that you and your sister send letters....regular mail is dying and it makes me sad.

great idea for a post...
hard to think through, isn't it?
love that your sister writes letters to you...the handwritten letter is rare these days!
