Most prized possession?

MoonMama wrote: Today my mom, my little brother and I were all sitting outside talking when he ask...What's your most prized possession? He went on to say not family photos or that kind of thing and not people since they are not really a possession. But what ONE item would you be beyond devastated to lose?

I really had to think about this one hard. We all had different answers. And it got my thinking what would you all say. So...what's you most prized possession?

For me I would have to say this leopard print fleece blanket I have. While I am not greatly fond of leopard print. My little sister bought the stuff to make it with money from her first pay check from her first job, and made if for me when I was sick one time. I think it's the sweetest thing someone has ever done for me.

luvmykids replied: I have a few, but probably the one I'd be most devastated to lose is a ring that has been in my family for five generations. It's sapphires which happen to be my birthstone and also why I lucked into getting it next. It's very unique because of the period it's from and I treasure it. I don't even keep it here at home because I'm terrified one of the girls would come across it and lose it.

Another is my grandma's recipe cards. When she passed away it was the first thing I took because I remember spending so much time in the kitchen with her and love using her recipes, in her handwriting, wearing one of her aprons that she made.

Mommy2BAK replied: thats a really tough one.... I don't know that I have a most prized posession. Maybe my wedding ring, not because I'm materialistic and like diamonds or anything like that... I guess just because I am reminded of the promise I made to my husband and God on that day. Mushy, I know

lovemy2 replied: My picture of my father - I know you said pictures don't count but it has to be the one thing I would be devastated to be without - it is the only way I get to see him everyday since he died 6 years ago....and its also the only way I can let my children know what he looked like, etc. In fact it is in a frame in my daughter's toy room and most mornings and/or evenings she says either good morning or good nite to him

Calimama replied: It's a toss up between my DH's dog tags and my wedding ring set.

Mommy2Isabella replied: Okay ... no one laugh, My baby blanket, I still sleep with it ... I know Im a baby!

luvbug00 replied: mya's stuffed duck "quack quack" my oma gave it to her and it's the one thing that connects the two most influencial people in my life.

Cece00 replied: My wedding rings. It really would crush me if I lost them.

Other than that- my kids scrapbooks/baby boxes, and then my digital camera.

Maddie&EthansMom replied: The quilt my Nanie made me right before she died. It would kill me if anything happened to that quilt.

HuskerMom replied: I would say either my wedding ring or my great grandma's class ring from 1924. She gave it to me when I was about 12.

Hillbilly Housewife replied: Other than my fmaily, I can't think of a single thing I could lose that would devastate me beyond initial disapointment. I'm due for new stuff.

Maybe my husband's job.

when she passed away she wanted me to have them and I'm to pass them on to my girls when its time

And

My sapphire necklaces and Earrings and ring that Ed and the kids got me

Jackie012007 replied: wow this is a toughie! Probably the mother's ring Carl ad Carly bought me for Mother's Day, it's a symbol of the best thing that ever happened to me, my daughter.

This is going to sound stupid, and I guess it's not really a posession, but my tattoo means a lot to me and I would be devastated if something happened to it. It is in memory of my grandma who lost her battle with Breast Cancer - she and I were very close and she is my hero. Not a day goes by that I don't look at it and think of her, I really wish she were here for Carly

MoonMama replied: I love everyones answers.

MyBrownEyedBoy replied: There are actually a few things I would hate to lose. I would be beyond distraught if the baby quilt my grandma made Logan was ever lost and I would be equally upset if anything happened to the quilt she made me when I graduated from high school. And also, my ancient teddy bear, Benji. He's 31 years old like me and looks every bit of it.

TANNER'S MOM replied: I would be devastated to loose my saddle. It was the first thing of value Dh ever bought me. He bought it for me before he bought my wedding rings. It was expensive and something that he had to payout and then have altered to fit me. I have short legs and he had to have the stirrups taken up to my measurements. It's even more important to me than my wedding rings.

I would also hate to loose my children's lovey's. Dh's baby book and Tanner's first chaps that hang on the wall.
