Charmed

Dec 11

When I was pregnant with MM, I was gifted this pretty gold bar with my initials on one side- “MVM”- and “Maddie” on the other.

And I’ve worn it pretty much every day since- initials side out until she came; then “Maddie” from that day forward.

Since then, I’ve collected several sweet charms that I layer as daily reminders of a few of my loves.

Here’s what they mean to me:

charm Details from top to bottom

“Lila” Script Diamond : My mama gifted me this delicate diamond necklace after our second girl was born.

“MADDIE” Gold Bar Nameplate {above}

“M” : One of my first purchases at my favorite local jewelry spot

Celestial Orb: Because she’s pretty

“L” : Phil gifted my this initial this past Mother’s Day, when I was pregnant with our Lila

Gold Cross {similar}: A gift from my First Communion

Gemini Charm: For my MM, and both her personalities heehee

“I Love Us”: I received this one as part of one of the first collaborations I did; this tiny charm stands for my little family of four and how far this blog has come

Maui Charm: I got this on one of my trips to Maui with my mama- a place we visited often when I lived on the west coast. It used to live on a bracelet but fell off the chain, so I added it to my other favorites on this necklace

Carlotta Pendant: Another one from my local favorite. Again, because it’s just so pretty
