Family Heirloom

My grandfather, a veteran of the US Military, was a husband and father of 6 sons. Our family has never been rich nor wealthy, but my Grandfather was a hard worker and made many treasures for my Grandmother. When I was just a little girl my Grandma told me the story of how I came to be named Tiffany, my Grandfather insisted because he was very ill that he named the last grandchild he will get to meet. Then she brought out a beautiful chest, not a big chest but a petite one you could put on a shelf or dresser and gave it to me, said she knew he would want me to have it. It was hand made by my Grandfather for my Grandmother for their first anniversary. I cherish the chest, not because it is fancy or expensive, it is a memory of my Grandfather and Grandmother’s love. The box represents our family bond and how no matter rich or poor there is something beautiful if you just open your mind and create it. Beauty isn’t only found in diamonds and pearls, it’s in family, love, and thoughtfulness. My grandfather, a veteran of the US Military, was a husband and father of 6 sons.
