"Adorement"

I got myself a small Christmas present this year - a token of my gratitude for my wonderful spouse and children.

It was this ring, which you can find online at Catalog Favorites:



As you can see from the photo above, it has a lovely sentiment. The band is sterling silver and is inscribed with "I made a wish" and there is a little golden star impressed. Then the inside of the band is inscribed: "and you came true."

My 11 year old daughter was looking at it and said, "I wonder why people even WEAR rings. Why do they want to have rings on their fingers?"

We talked about how some, like engagement rings and wedding bands, are symbols of a couples commitment to each other. In other cases, rings are simply decoration, adornment.

And she, my clever little girl, said, "But this new ring you have must be adore-ment."

Awww.

I love my family.
