When Grandma passed on family members chose remembrances from
her possessions.

Selected first were dishes she had used daily to lovingly serve
meals. (I am sure that each of us had made a few of the chips.)

Passed over were the "good dishes" in the china cabinet, which were used only for special occasions.

Friends outside the family gladly accepted her "good" things.

MORAL:
Use all the lovely things you own to make memories now, of what you want your loved ones to cherish, as much as you do.

If you have two children who both like a particular piece of crystal that you use on special occasions, go ahead and buy a second (identical) piece so they can each have that special memory in their own home someday.
