Cherish Gifts for 2014

Now that Christmas is over, I thought I would share with you the gifts I gave to my children this year “To Cherish”.  For the past several years I have given each of my girls a piece to this beautiful nativity set.  I started with “The Holy Family” and have added the sets each year.  For one daughter, this was her first year at receiving the beginning set as she will be getting married this upcoming year and will have her own home to decorate.  For two of my daughters, we are almost completely finished with the set.

This is one of the favorite gifts that I have given.  My daughters were a little young and may not have been super excited to receive.  However, I believe that it will be gift that grows in significance with time.  I put together a book with stories of many of their ancestors (grandmothers) with the intention of helping them to understand what strong women that have in their lineage.  I then wanted them to also have the pictures of themselves with their grandmothers in a frame in which they can keep in sight at all times.  These women are great
