My son (5 at the time) gave me a picture of us for Christmas that my ex took years earlier of us walking downstairs heading to the 4th of July celebrations, holding hands. I didn't even know that pic existed for 3 years and it was framed in a pretty, futuristic minimalist kinda frame like my style and it's my favorite thing ever. She asked him what he wanted to give me for Christmas and that's what he said. It's the one thing I'm grabbing if the house catches fire. I've even thought about buying several of the same frames online and copying the picture to make sure I have a backup, it's that treasured to me.

JFYI: I'm not in prison or anything and he's alive and healthy, and me and his mom get along. There's no hidden sad story here, it's just a beautiful picture of a cherished moment.
