Most Kind Mr. John etal (LONG)

Oh Linda you know what I am doing today???  one of the most not Bonnie things EVER…. going out with future son in iaw and HIS MOTHER to do what?  hrumph  look at engagement rings for my baby girl.  He LOVES ME  Ii am his best buddy now, and I value that, truely I do,  but his mother is very up front (nice woman)  but has this HUGE diamond ring and one from a deceased grandmother of his, that he feels he wants to incorporate into the design he has chosen.  Now even though I hinted to my DD that this is coming down,  she has warned me of what not to agree to,  (my tastes exactly, and she herself has said she would have loved to have my poor wee broken and never been fixed diamond (size of a grain of sugar diamond sneaked into it.  Well, I am bringing it along with me, and will only if they decide to put in grammys and her diamond which according to DD are HUGE  hmmm

 SO it is not a fun day.  He wants it to be perfect, but for whom I ask for whom?  But I will put my pudgy foot down, and at least try to get something along what DD wishes.  I have a ring that she adores, and I even cleaned it all sparkly up  (sapphire with small diamonds but tis the shape style, and size she wishes)  so I will show them that, and tell them not to get some HUGE giant thing that woiuld look like the rock of gibralter on her small hands.  then we will all go out to DIM SUM (their fav place)  I think its weird to drag along two mothers to decide the final ring choice.   But in a way I feel honoured I guess,  but this has gotten my already bubbling tummy up in big flips.  I do not know diddly squat about diamonds,  points, cuts, carrots, (hahah colour) clarity, infractions?  But I will flub my way and be a worldly mamma out for the best for her dotter, in what looks good.   (she says only no zirconion hahah   love from the peasant in jewerly land.

addition to ring day with me and future SIL and his Mom.  Much to my surprise It went WELL.  He picked a ring,  he did NOT incorporate any family diamonds,  my old diamond was TOO big (hahah) for the side diamond channel thingy, I talked him into being real, and understanding that to use a old diamond for  his love was not a cool thing, his maw agreed.  We have decided (even him) to let him buy her a NEW ring all new diamonds and get this  CANADIAN ones too,  and any other diamonds to be of  NO CONFLICT kind (sort of like Fair trade coffee)  My special cause.

all agreed.  He put a down payment on what I and she and he decided, would be a perfect setting for DD.  and I even got him to change his mind on the date of proposal.  So it was decided that when he goes to get their wedding rings, he will (wants to)  use my mothers diamond (small)  his mothers diamond  (smaller) and his grandmothers diamond to put in the band.  My mother who thought her engagement ring was just a zirconium, hahah  pleasantly surprised to find it was a whole 1/10 of a CT so for her that was lovely, and for me to know that my DD will have her grandmother and grandfather sort of forever in her wedding band, made me feel a whole lot better.

I will simply get my engagement ring fixed and remount the diamond and telling my DH that the ring he paid 125.00 45 years ago, is in fact NOT FLAWED and deemed too big to fit into a planned thing for DD made him smile so big,  I loved my wee ring,and knew in my heart it was the bestus thing I ever had, and hearing someone say it today just cinched it for DH.

ahhhhh  Future MIL even wanted to plan our dresses…..  so makes me feel good, and said  tsk tsk stop worrying about your BOOOZUMS or lack thereof. hahah

GOOD DAY I am content.  Tomorrow is spa day with DD and me. and hair cut,  ooooh such a drastic move.  I want a change, and unfort, I have been looking  GASP at hair cuts for old ladies.   LORD HELP ME OUT.
