This cross is my Baptism Gift. When I was Baptized the priest put my body in the holy water and put this cross on me. This cross reminds me that I'm a proud Christian Orthodox, and this cross holds special memories since I started wearing it. This cross has been through a lot with me ,and whenever I look at the cross it makes me feel good because I think about God. When I was a little toddler my mom took away the cross to keep it in a safe place since I would always move around and it would break if I had it on. So, when I turned 10 I kept asking my mom if I could wear it. One day, my mom finally took the cross out of the safe place and I tried it on. It fit perfectly, and now I wear it till this day and I will always keep it safe with me. One day, I hope to pass it down to my son
