My great grandmother always told me I was the most Irish of all her grandchildren. My looks, my obsession with the culture, all of it. She had a small gold claddagh ring that she’d show me every time I saw her and say “when I pass, this is getting passed on to you”. She passed late last year and my great aunt asked again (she’d been asking for a while) what all the family wanted from her possessions. My mom, my grandma and I only asked for the ring, as it had gone missing when my great grandparents had moved several years earlier. Thankfully, my family are all good people, because it was found and given to me at her service. The craziest part was that when I went to put it on, it seemed too small at first and I said “that’s okay, I bought a chain just in case” but a minute later, I tried to put it on again, and it was a perfect fit 🥹 I wear it every day now and still think of her. And when my goddaughter looks at it I tell her “one day, when you’re older, I’m going to give this to you.”
