Day 219

Isn't it pretty?  It's an ivory wedding candle my mom bought for me...for my wedding...24 years ago!  Can you believe it?  For 24 years she hung on to this little gem...the poor thing probably thought I was NEVER going to get married!!

When I opened it at my bridal shower, she asked if I remember it.  I do remember the blue one that she bought just like it, that was a decoration in our home for years...but I have to admit I did not recall her buying one for me as well.  It was quite a surprise.  And even after all these years, it still smelled good!  Now that I finally have possession of it, it sits on display in our armoire.
