A letter of love…Cache Chic Gets Personal
I’m so thankful to have the kind of friends that make you want to be a better person. The ones that help you grow in faith. Do you have one of those kind of friends that shine the light of the Lord so bright that you can see Jesus in there face? Well, if you saw my friend Melissa share her love with the children at the preschool I work at, you would see the perfect picture of Matthew 19:14. (Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.) The joy and laughter she brings to these children by sharing God’s word is priceless.
Now Melissa has shared something so personal with me, a letter to her mother. It truly has touched my heart…she writes…
Tricia,
This is the note to my mom that I gave to her along with her necklace. It’s very personal and it just flowed and once I finished writing, I realized that I really wanted to share this note with you too. I have no doubt I picked the exact necklace that I needed to give to my mom for her birthday. I love that you, a dear friend, made this for my mother even when you didn’t know it was for her. Thank you for making this necklace for my mom – she means the world to me.
Here’s the note:
Mom,
Happy Birthday! Like me, I know you don’t want a big deal made out of this day – but those who love you like to celebrate your life.
This necklace I got for you is special so let me explain. First, it was custom made by a friend of mine. She makes each piece of jewelry with love & prayer and no two pieces are exactly alike. This necklace is unique like you. There is no one like you.
Next, the necklace says, “Blessed” because you are blessed. But also because I feel so incredibly blessed to have you in my life – to have you as a mother to me, a grandmother to my children and also to have you as a friend. Blessed…
And the heart – because you have a beautiful heart full of love that you willingly share with others.
Last, it all sits on a cross. The cross started out as a smooth piece of copper – perfect. But then it was hammered, changed, bent, no longer perfect & smooth. That’s what life does to us – not even perfect to begin with and then life adds more bumps & bends – some easy, some hard. But the cross redeems, saves, forgives and loves.
I love you,
Melissa
Thank you Melissa so much for sharing something so personal. It’s a beautiful reflection of God’s love.
And so the story of love continues… Cache Chic Gets Personal
I love this story! It makes my heart melt. What a great opportunity to witness the sweet love of a husband for his wife even in the midst of an uncertain situation. Celebrating 54 years of marriage!

Last Spring my husband was VERY ill and had been in the hospital for more time than we wanted. In all this time he was NEVER alone (even in ICU) as one of our four children or myself was with him. He asked my daughter, Katie, to get me something special to show his love and she contacted Tricia to make up a necklace depicting our life.
Tricia made a circle inscribed Tom & Joby; hanging behind are two small silver pieces – one inscribed with our wedding date 11/24/56 and the other inscribed with 1 COR 13:7 and a little faceted clear crystal sits atop to stand for the purity of our love! There is seldom a day goes by that I don’t wear (or touch) that necklace of love!
I’m happy to say that today my husband, Tom, is a healthy and very happy content man. And so the story of love continues………..
Thank you Joby for sharing your story!
January 30, 2010 - 2:23 pm - My parents are the best - always a great example of what marriage should look like, and awesome parenting as well (and grandparenting & greatgrandparenting!) We are blessed with Dad's health today...and Tricia - even before I "knew you through FB"....I loved you because of the beautiful gift you created for my Mom, through Katie & Dad.
