I remember the time when we saw nothing but these citrine drops. Then she stopped wearing them to the point that I wondered if she's lost or given them away.
It's kind of nice to see them again

did we all learn a lesson from those el cheapos the other day ?


but in saying that i would be happy to know most of the kikis are safely tucked away for Charlot's 13th birthday to wear on sundays going to church with Grandpa England (or is he still Grandpa Wales /)

and
i think those cousins more than deserve to be there on sunday and im glad the King thinks so

 

[dk168]

Same, however, I don't like the Emeralds in the bracelet as they protrude too high for my liking.
