This angel ornament was the first Christmas present that she gave to me that wasn't a drawing or craft done in Mother's Day Out or school. Of course, I value those little gifts more than life itself, but this one was special because she and her Daddy went shopping and she picked it out all by herself. I think she was about six. It is also my birth angel so that made it super special!
And she painted this one for me when she was in early high school. She knew that magnolias were my favorite flower. She has given me other magnolias over the years, but this one was special because she painted it. Oh, and of course, she gave me the lovely Miss Noli too -- her name being Magnolia! Nothing much more special than that little sweetie!
(See the ornament next to it? That's the one we got for Stephanie's first Christmas!)
