A sweet memory....

It came up on my Facebook memories that 11 years ago today our middle son asked his now wife to marry him. I gave him the diamonds for her rings. The jeweler who made her rings took this photo. Her band has seven diamonds. I didn’t know a lot about diamonds then, as I do now, but I do have to say that when I see her wearing those rings they sparkle like crazy. So I didn’t do so bad after all. I had probably had the diamonds from different pieces for at least 20 years so they weren’t new. It was nice to see them become a family heirloom.

Those are very nice, white and sparkly stones indeed. Such a sweet gesture to have your DIL have your ring... And to look back and be able to say you’ve contributed to the happiness of your son as he embarks on a new and exciting chapter of his life is indeed very precious, more precious than the stones that sparkle on that lucky gal’s hand I envy you that experience, @LorettaB

Wow what a great ring, it looks so pretty with her band too. No doubt she is lucky to have such a generous MIL.

Thank you! I try. My mother was a good mother-in-law. She was a great example. My late mother-in-law....I just wish it had been better, but that didn’t happen.

It definitely could! Or...one or all future granddaughter(s)-in-law will be lucky enough to play in GrandMary’s treasure box
