Why is this item important and special to you?

I like to keep things we had way back. People used to bring this Innu calendar into the Bush. The priest gave them calendars written in Innu. We'd stick a needle in the page every Sunday, to remember which week it was when we were in the Bush. I really miss calendars like this.
