Sometime during my senior year in high school, my parents gave me a charm bracelet and two charms from James Avery. As I didn't appreciate all the joys of jewelry yet at that tender (and silly) age, I put them away and left them in the box until I graduated from college. Once I began teaching, I finally discovered the joy of charm bracelets while admiring the unique and individual bracelets of my students. So I dug out my bracelet, got it resized, and here I am, well over 40 charms. Even though the bracelet is stretched out from wear and so many charms, I love to wear my bracelet. It's like wearing my friends and family on my wrist. But it's also because there is a story behind every charm. Some of them are funny, some sweet, some sad, but all of them are important to me. I hope you'll enjoy them as I share them with you.

Oh, I love this! Can't wait to hear the stories.
what a fun idea! i'm excited to hear the stories!
I'm looking forward to reading them. Keep it clean ok?! Oh and keep your family's embarassment-meter at low ok? :)
I could've sworn I commented on this. I was just wondering if any ever fall off, or if you soldered them all on? Does the jingling get annoying to wear every day? This makes me want to go out and raid a charm shop. Do you ever pick up charms on vacations, or do you always stick to James Avery?
I have been enjoying reading this, and I wish some one had ever given me one. Looking forward to reading more.
