Yesterday, I cleaned out my jewelry collection and found something very special…a cross necklace Bret gave me when we first started dated and right before he went to Iraq. I remember how he put it on backwards and I didn’t realize until he had left…and I just didn’t have the heart to fix it until he got back 7 months later.

I wore that necklace a lot for a very long time. I couldn’t tell you why I stopped wearing it.

Anyways, I put it back on yesterday and was super excited to show Bret when he got home.

As we were standing in the kitchen, I’m all, LOOOK!

And he said something along the lines of….you got a new necklace??
