Rolling Ring for Mom...

Hi there, awhile back I posted about looking for a ring for my mom for Christmas. I wanted to get her something that would remind her of my dad who we lost tragically in Sept 2012 and for the loss of my brother in 2008. My poor mom has had to endure so much that I wanted to do something nice for her. After everyone's suggestions, I decided on a rolling ring. I purchased this one http://www.rollingring.com/Rolling-Rings-p/rolling-rings-3b3c.htm and took it to be engraved. The yellow gold band has my mom and dad's name, the rose gold has my name, and the white gold has my brother's name. I think she will love it and I hope it will one day be a family heirloom. I am thankful that I have two little boys who she loves dearly and give her so much joy. Thank you all for your ideas and suggestions.

I also wanted to mention that working with Rollingring.com was wonderful. The ring is a beautiful quality and customer service was super responsive. It took awhile for my mom to go and get her finger sized for me to order and when she finally did, when I went to order, the sale had stopped! I emailed them and explained the situation and asked if they would honor the sale price for me. They responded sending their condolences and said they would absolutely honor the sale price. Anyways, great service, great product, and a great price!

I only have one pic but you get the idea!

DJ, thank you! My mom is not very flashy so I figured the rolling ring would be a perfect piece for her everyday wear. Love your avatar btw!

Rosebloom, you are absolutely right - bitterweet it is. My now 5 month old son's Baptism was a week before my dad's passing and I am thankful that we were all able to share that day together.

Enerchi, thank you! I was so relieved when I found someone who could engrave it. I guess hand engraving is not something that many can do here locally. Luckily, after searching high and low, I found someone who has a machine that can do it. Thanks for all your help choosing a piece for her!

Maisie, thank you so much!

Alistra, thank you! I can't wait to give it to her.

MGR, thanks very much! I know it is something she will treasure. I am going to make sure she has a chain too in case she ever wants to wear it around her neck.

Canuk-gal, thank you!

SKippy, thank you! Enjoy your boys this holiday!

Jane, thank you! I know it will be a piece that she will enjoy and enjoy talking about too.
