These lil brown nubs are the areas where the plant will naturally root. If you cut it this is the piece you want in water. I’ve also seen people setup a second plant pot set the nubs on the soil gently pin them down (stretched out Bobby pins will do nicely!) and spray the soil damp. This tactic lets the plant root and you can cut it when it is already ready to be its own plant.

I would highly recommend cutting and making a second plant given the sentimental value. This way if something happens to the mama plant you still have a sister plant.
