Old things...
>Quilts- Made for me when I was born, by my nana and great grandmother, made for DH and me for our wedding, by my sister/BIL.
>Random pieces of china. My grandparents had a friend who was a china dealer. He went to people's homes with a big barrel full of display pieces of Limoges, Haviland, etc. When patterns were retired, he'd give the pieces to my grandparents, which went to my mom and now to me. I have chocolate pots, teacups/saucer, serving plates/platters, demitasse cups, salad plates, etc. Nothing matches, and as we use some of it, it's getting worn, but i love having it.
>My cousin, Ginger. She is 87 and still active and "with it." There was a schism in our family after my father died and my mother made sure to keep the distance. After 30 years, we reached out to each other and now I'm back in contact with ALL my cousins on my father's side of the family. Ginger is the oldest, and I discovered recently that she is also one of my godmothers; I thought only my great aunt, on my mother's side of the family, was my godmother. I am always, ALWAYS grateful that our family is reunited, and that Ging is still with us to enjoy it. One of my dearest memories is from several years ago, watching Ginger and my daughter walking down the driveway, arm in arm, chatting away with each other!
ETA: I forgot that I have some jewelry that belonged to my grandmother, great aunt, and great grandmother. Also some crystal dessert dishes that my MIL received as a wedding present in 1954.
