Dear sweet Nana

My dear Nana always had a good story to tell. I remember being amused and spooked by her stories, I always enjoyed them. I wish I had them recorded.

As I was unpacking Christmas decor, I came across a box which held a very special piece of my Nana's past. It was a little outfit that was worn by my Nana at the age of 1 or 2. In this dress, over 80 years ago, she was warming herself by the fire, when it caught on fire. She was unharmed, but the back of the dress is completely burned! It is so amazing to me to have this tangible piece of this story. Oh I miss my Nana!

I can't believe after all these years, I never noticed the box that this has been packed in! What a hoot!
