Our mantel pieces. The sun mirror was from my roommate’s dad (we’re getting moons for the upstairs mantel), and the heart is from a dear friend. 💖☀️ pic.twitter.com/UbSQAZYrL5

I would be really upset if something happened to my daughter’s blanket. It was gifted to her after her first open heart surgery and crocheted by the grandmother of another little heart patient who did not survive. It means so much that her family is bringing comfort to others. pic.twitter.com/8xsdwEE47m

A tobacco tin that held our house keys when I was a child. The rattle of the tin sounds like coming home. pic.twitter.com/E6iwaXUvdE

This pic that we had digitized of my family from 1940 in Hempstead Co, Arkansas. My grandmother (her sibs), my great-gf (his sibs), and my great-great-gm are all in the pic. My great-aunt lived to be 104! Love this pic b/c it reminds me of who I come from ❤️cc: @Gabriellegance pic.twitter.com/OOL27K2vK1

These roller skates, which belonged to my mother when she was a kid in the 1950s. I found them when clearing out her house after she died, and they were the inspiration for Mementos Podcast. You can listen to the story here (~12 mins): https://t.co/ewvdkPIdWS. pic.twitter.com/tAVdoOZStv

My dad’s last pack of cigarettes. It has to be said: the guy had terrible taste in cigarettes. pic.twitter.com/N6RA5CrgR8

This painting by a family friend. He fought during World War II as part of the Ghost Army.
He’s the one in the middle of the black-and-white pic; Ellsworth Kelly is the guy on the right. pic.twitter.com/YhfdB5PWgu

There are photos and #kidlit art that I treasure, but today I choose the Harry Potter quilt my mom made for me in 2016. She loves quilting, we chose the fabric together and the books as well as the audiobooks have played a huge role in my life as well as the lives of my kids. pic.twitter.com/gJBujXGeys
