About 16 years ago The Husband and I went over to my mother-in-law’s house to help her with something at her house. I can’t exactly remember what we were helping her with. What I do remember is that I went to the restroom to wash my hands. In order to wash my hands, I took my wedding ring off as normal. I put it on the side of the sink. After I washed my hands I went to grab my ring. It slipped out of my hand and went down the drain. I was absolutely devastated.
The day I lost my ring I just felt horrible because I loved my ring. It was my husband’s way of symbolizing his forever love for me. I actually wish I could go back in time to stop that moment. I know it’s not necessary to have a ring but I actually miss my ring. I would love another one. I just actually love what a ring symbolizes. It also kind of gets annoying when you get hit on and you say you are married. The first thing the person pursuing you does is look and at your hand and point out you are not wearing a ring. How does it make me any less married because I am not wearing a ring? However, I can see why they think I would be lying but I really am not. A ring is an important part of a marriage, there are even anniversary rings and milestone rings that are used to symbolize certain years of your marriage, they do mean a lot to many people, especially to me.
So in all honesty I would love another ring to replace the one I lost. I really miss my ring at times. I am really hoping to get another one soon. One of my friends suggested that I get one of those mood rings which is in trend now. Sometimes I can still feel the ring on my finger. I actually sometimes wonder if it could possibly still be in the drain. But I highly doubt that it is. I think it would be a pleasant surprise if I got it for my birthday or anniversary gift.
When I think of that ring I just think about the meaning behind it. I still remember the moment that my husband proposed to me with the ring, and a beautiful canvas picture he held in his hand as a gift. He had our first picture printed on canvas, complete with a bouquet and that stunningly beautiful ring. For the sake of the proposal, he ordered it from Canvas Design, a canvas printing uk company. Aaahhhh! It was such a romantic proposal, and now I’m feeling even worse.
I also remember that ring being placed on my finger to solidify our forever union. I hope that eventually we can replace the ring.
