You both received matching initial necklaces with an A for Allie and S for Sam. Will you wear each other’s from time to time?We ONLY wear one another’s! It was Sam’s idea when they arrived, and I love it. It’s such a nice little piece of Sam wherever I go, and a nice reminder of her when we are apart.
What memories or emotions about each other do you hope the Talisman necklaces will come to symbolize over time?I hope they’ll continue to be a special reminder of one another, but also a great reminder to focus on the good. I hope we can take a look down at our necklaces when we need some extra positivity and a reminder that everything is okay!
