My object is a bracelet. It was made in Colombia. The bracelet is made of iron.  The bracelet was made in Colombia but I’m from Ecuador.  I wear it everyday on my wrist.   It is important to me because my mother gave it to me when I turned 12 years old. The bracelet shows the love that my mom gave me.  It also has some letters and those letters represent my initials.  Moreover the bracelet reminds me of my people, my country, my childhood, the memories that  I lived  in there,when I cried,when I played with my cousins and the time I shared with my grandparents.  I came to Minnesota because my life in Ecuador was really hard because my parents doesn’t had enough money to pay to their employees.
