What a lovely article, Sofia. When I was in middle school my mom gave me a charm bracelet. My favorite charm was the beautiful Star of David with my birth stone. I wore it on special occasions. My daughter is in her 20's and she now wears it for special occasions too. Mother-daughter-hand-me-downs are precious. There are so few of us Jews in the world today. I imagine that thousands of years ago, we were simply all extended family members.
