This is a hard one for me because I have so many! But my best ones all revolve around people that I love (and who love me) giving me a piece of jewelry to mark a special occasion. My parents, who gave me a sterling silver key necklace when I turned 16 and a pearl and diamond one when I turned 18. The plain white gold band that my husband slipped on my finger when I said "I do" and that within a year, slipped right off my finger again to be lost forever because it was two sizes too big. And then the various handmade pieces my husband has bought for me, my silver dime bracelet and necklace, my topaz ring...and the most recent, a new wedding band - from the same man - with diamonds all the way around.
The pieces of jewelry that mark the stages of my life are like the stones that the ancients would pile up to be a witness of important and wonderful events in their journey. They help me remember.
