Day 6 of 30-Day Photo Challenge

A Picture Of Your Most Treasured Item




This is a gold chain that my grandfather bought for me from money he got in his first pension when I was a very little girl. He was illiterate and as the story goes, when he went to buy the pendant, he could not remember how to spell my name and bought a letter "M" instead of a letter "N" which is the first letter of my first name. He passed away soon after (4 days before my 4th birthday). I never had the pendant changed because it's the only thing I have from him and I usually tell people that the "M" is for my surname and not my first name.
