"When we were in Perth with your grandparents.." he says, my sharp intake of breath giving him pause before going on, "Grandma Grace took me aside during one of your kips and handed this to me as a gift for you. Apparently, it’s been passed down all the women in her family for nearly 150 years. It’s a gift they get when they become engaged, so they can wear it on their wedding when the time comes." He says this so softly my heart aches with the care he always takes with me.
