My youngest sister, Erin {Er-Bear, Bear for short}, has impeccable taste- timeless, classic, and effortlessly chic; all at the ripe-old-age of 21. So when it came to my baby shower, it was no surprise when she gave me the most beautifully sentimental present- a Jennifer Meyer nameplate, inscribed with my initials on one side and my daughter's soon-to-be nickname on the other. Hormonal, emotional and filled with joy, I naturally cried when I received it.  The gold plated beauty was just perfect- timeless, beautiful and classic, just like the Bear.

I wore the necklace for the next several weeks, initials side out, counting down the days 'til I could show the other side.  On June 12th, in the wee hours of the morning, that day came. Still on the delivery bed and only minutes after my daughter was born, we flipped the necklace, “Maddie” side out.  I've worn it every day since- reminding me of my daughter, my sister, and the happiest day of my life.
