The Heart On My Heart

This Christmas I received a very special gift.  A gift that means an awful lot to me. Something I will always keep close to my heart. 

Literally.

Farid and George sent me a necklace.  When I opened it, I cried.  A heart shaped necklace with Milena and Gustavo's names engraved on it, along with their birthstones.  It's beautiful and I absolutely adore it.  

I simply love that I get to keep 

Milena, Gustavo, Farid and George

close to my heart, each and every day...

even though physically, they are so very far away.   

I wear my necklace every day and I have had quite a few people comment on it!  I proudly share with them who Milena and Gustavo are, and how they were brought into this world.  They listen intently with that look on their face that I have come to love...the look of  "wow".  

And I have to agree with them.  

As I look back...as I look forward...there are very few other words to describe it.  

Wow.
