I'm sure that Nana would have love this too. You have added so many little things that were part of her life, she always wore her pearls and loved flowers, she would be so proud of all you have achieved and would love her Great Grandson to bits. The box looks so beautiful and I know you will treasure it forever. She was indeed an inspiration to me as well whilst I was growing up too. Enjoy your Day.
