Danny is very proud to have gotten me a wedding ring with 35 diamonds in it. I love my ring. Nothing could replace it.
As many of you know:
(and Danny is acutely aware)I love jewelry...and everyone knows that diamonds are a girl's best friend. Knowing this, when Danny was figuring out what to get me for my "bride's gift"--of course diamonds crossed his mind. But how could he top the 35 diamonds he had already given me? Danny always finds a way around sticky situations like this. For my gift he had a family heirloom diamond from many grandmothers ago set into a pendant. I just dont know how he always pulls these things off.
As many of you know:
Danny and I exchanged gifts just after we left the temple after our sealing. The necklace was a huge surprise and he put it on me. I proudly wore 36 diamonds for about 2 hours. When we got to the reception to change back into our formal wear, we were running a little late so in the rush the necklace got put into a box and thrown into a bag in the basement bathroom of the museum...never to be seen again.
As many of you know:
Danny and I spent many hours agonizing over said necklace, calling every place we went, checking every lost and found, talking with every possible family member, friend, associate, janitor, etc. to try to locate the lost family diamond.
As many of you know:
I felt like the biggest looser of the century...especially knowing that his grandmother was aware of the loss.
As many of you DON'T know:
Julie called us yesterday and found the necklace in a bag in her closet yesterday. No...it wasn't her fault. I put that bag there because it also had some borrowed wedding stuff that is stored in her closet.
As many of you will soon see:
I am happily reunited with--and proudly wearing--my 36th diamond.
