It doesn’t matter if it’s an antique watch or a handwritten letter from yesteryear, any family heirloom passed down from generation to generation is truly special.
That’s why it’s no surprise why the following sweet story has quickly been going viral all over the internet. Brandy Yearous, AKA “Super Mom” wrote the following article for TODAY Parenting Team, in which she talks about a very special birthday tradition for her children.
“As time passes, every year we are shocked at how much our babies have grown.” the mother wrote. “We see them every single day, obviously, but it is always fun to go back and see where the changes were.”
So Brandy decided to take photos of her kids every year wearing the same piece of clothing, so they could hopefully grow into them someday.
For her son, she decided to go with her husband’s blue jeans:
But for her daughter, Brandy wanted something a bit closer to her heart.
“I chose my wedding dress for a lot reasons. One, because I want to get more than one day’s use out of it!”
“Two, I really think she’s going to want her own dress when she gets married, so what a wonderful way to celebrate my own marriage than to pass a tradition down to my only daughter.
“Three, I think it will be a great memento to show at her wedding someday.”
