Accepting Reality

After a few years time I have finally faced the reality that my wedding ring no longer fits me. I kept hoping somehow it would fit again without turning my whole finger numb. But, I faced the truth and finally had it resized. I went from a 4 1/2 to a 5 1/2. A whole size! It was hard to accept the fact that I am not the same size I was when I was married. Thank goodness we don't have to try and fit in our wedding dresses again. Now that would be a very sad day.

Now that it has been resized, I love having it fit. It feels brand new again and I keep staring at it like I did when I first was given it. I look forward to putting it on instead of resenting it because it didn't fit any more. I still love it and love wearing it again.

That which we call a Rose...

What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet. Cassidy Rose!

We call Cassidy, Dee Dee, all the time. I figured she would pick up on that as her name. But when I asked her one day Dee Dee what? and she said Rose, it took me by surprise. That is her middle name. I do call her that a lot, but it was so cute to hear her say it. I hadn't taught her that or rehearsed it with her. She just picked it up from me saying it. Isn't it adorable?
