Nonie, one thing I found that helped with some of the things that I couldn't bring but truly meant something to me was to take pictures of them. It wasn't the thing that mattered, but the memory behind it. What's nice is that I put them on my puter and wrote explanations of what they were and why they were important. It made it much easier to leave them behind.
