Twenty years ago, I bought my first Hallmark Mary's Angel ornament. It was the same year that we lost our first baby, Heather Dawn. I wanted to buy something in memory of her and when I saw these ornaments it seemed to be perfect thing I was looking for. I've bought one every year since, except for one. Last year, we figured out which year was missing, it was the fifth year. Who knows why I didn't buy one, maybe got too busy. Well, Tom went on e-bay and found the missing ornament and was surprised they were going for a lot more than what I paid for them! He ended buying that one ornament for $80! They originally go for $5-$8. So now I have the complete set. I'm not sure how long Hallmark will be making these cute little angel ornaments, but I look forward to what next years will be.
I can't believe it's been 22 years - all those years ago. A tree full of angels, in memory of our precious angel, Heather Dawn, in the arms of Jesus.
