I, too, have drawers and boxes full of treasures that mean more to me than money ever could. And - I have treasures tucked away in my mind as well, and your post reminds me I should write them down, before they are memories lost...

You are so right about EVERYTHING :) I love your treasures, and like you, I have many that have no meaning to anyone else, but me, and to me, they are the greatest treasures!!!
