Just because...

So I come home this afternoon to find this little blue box on top of my dinning room table...

(Please excuse the mess of papers in the background)

So I ask my husband "What is this?", and he of course acts dumb saying "I don't know?!?!" If there is anything I love, it's antique looking keys, I am absolutely obsessed with them. I don't know exactly why it is I love them so much, but I just do. I think they are so beautiful, and who knows what they could possible unlock? So my husband being the great man that he is gave me this just because:

My father gave me a similar, but smaller gold key several years ago, which is right about when I believe my key obsession began. That small golden key was given to him by a family friend who helped my father a great deal in the past. It was gifted to him along with a small book titled the golden key, on his one year anniversary of being sober, and it is said to be the key to willingness. My father later gifted that same key to me, and my hope is to use that key as a family heirloom in the future. I now have four beautiful keys each of them given to me by people I love dearly. Who knows perhaps I will give all four of them as heirlooms in the future!

Thank you Honey for my gift! I love you!
