For this assignment I have to choose three items I would take from my house in the case of an emergency.

The three items I chose were:

A small safe which contains important documents.

A ring that my husband gave me.

And our wedding album.

Each of these items has significant meaning to me. The safe is important because it has our birth certificates, marriage license, and other important documents. The ring has sentimental value because my husband gave it to me the first time he told me he loved me. And our wedding album holds many happy memories and includes pictures of all of our family members.

I also had to write how I would feel if once we got to our destination we were told we could only keep one item. I would be completely devastated. I would probably end up choosing the wedding album.

I hope that I will never have to go through an experience like this one. And my heart goes out to the people who have lost their homes suddenly.
