    This bear was shot by my grandfather in India around 1932Throughout my childhood this bear sat on our living room floor. He was always there and he was just the norm to us. We played with him and pulled most of his teeth out!!!

    This is the first step I bought my daughter Kelly when she was 18 months old. I helped her learn to balance with a few slips and falls along the way. She is 9 1/2 now and does not  need this but still steps up to whatever life brings - sometimes slips and falls - but steps up again.

    This is a keepsake from one of the best days of my life so far. When I married my best friend and all the people I loved shared it with us. Also it was such a perfect day and I want to do it again because it went so quickly. Also getting dressed up as a princess for the day was so magical. It really was a wonderful day.

    This is a music box in the shape of a piano. The piano was the first instrument I touched at the age of three
