Growing up, my parents had one of these and would bring it out every year for each of our birthdays.
Looking back, it's kind of surprising how much a little gesture like that can affect me so greatly. I LOVED this plate. I loved getting the chance to eat off it, and I really did feel special on those days.
Now, that I have a family of my own, we have a plate as well. Even though it stares at us from the china cabinet during every meal, I usually forget it's there. I'm just hoping I'll remember to use it by the time my kids start remembering things.
