When I was younger my grandpa used to make wooden objects for me and my family. When he passed away he was working on a project for me, a heart box. When we cleaned out my grandparent's house I looked for it but their house was so big I thought it would be impossible to find. Luckily I found it in his dresser. When I saw it I fell in love with it. The box that he made me was wood with a red velvet lining in it the drawer was a heart while the actual box looks like a real piece of wood. If you pull out and turn around the heart drawer there is a smaller triangle drawer in the back. My grandpa made this in Minnesota, he also didn't get any help making the heart box or any of his other items. The special occasion that I connect it to is my birthday because my birthday was on the 13th of August and his birthday was the 12th. Also because I would just like to remember him. This object is important to me because my grandpa and I were very close and the day that he passed away I was the most hurt, I cried for like 3 weeks, and I wasn't happy for a very long time. People started to worry about me but then I tried to remember all the things that made him happy. I tried doing some of them and I started to feel better.
