My First Communion necklace. By Noëllia T.
My most precious object is a necklace. It’s a family heirloom; my
grandmother gave it to me for my First Communion. It was a present from her
mother for her First Communion. In fact, this necklace has come down four
generations. This object allows me to remember my family on my father’s side.

A rag doll. By Camille B.
My favourite object is a rag doll. My
great-grandmother was a member of a club for elderly people when she was 80
years old. With her friends, she made rag dolls for the Christmas market, to
collect funds for children in hospital. Without telling us anything, she made
us an extraordinary doll which she gave us but she didn’t have time to finish
it, because she was hospitalized because of stomach pains. During her stay in the
hospital, she asked us to bring the doll to her so that she could finish it. But,
she died a few days later. I think she knew she wouldn’t live long. The rag
doll was probably an object she wanted us to remember her by.
