Sad and happy all in one.

As I sat today watching my youngest play volleyball I realized that my wedding ring and engagement ring no longer fit. I had them sized awhile ago and unfortunately this caused my engagement ring to break. I stubbornly have worn it for years anyway. Today I had to take them off because it was causing my hand to turn into a very swollen mess. So I unfortunately took them off. When I got home I slid them sadly into my jewelry box.

My hubby and I went out for our weekend grocery shopping. My poor hand was sad. Is that even possible? We all know it was just me. Those rings have been on my hand for almost 20 years. They were an extension of myself. They were what my husband gave to me when we promised to be together forever. I couldn't imagine them not there. Being a week as it was already, I think I was overly emotional.

My hubby already sensed how sad I was.

I am simple. I wear my wedding rings, when I wear earrings it is usually diamond type studs, pearls or simple hoops. Usually not a lot of necklaces. My rings really meant a lot to me.

Well lets just say my husband is amazing. He decided I needed a new ring set. He also made me pick it out. As a mom I instantly feel guilty. As a wife my heart soared. He bought the set I loved and slid it onto my hand. My heart pretty much exploded. I am more in love with this man today and will continue to love him more and more everyday. It isn't the ring he bought for me. He just so knows what I need when I need it. I am so excited to see what life continues to offer us.
