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.

I have the same problem... except I got mine resized after the little girl and it fit until after I lost all my weight, then it fit again during my pregnancy, now it is too big. I'm afraid that I am going to lose it. I also noticed your little paper cut on your finger. My cut is almost gone. I'm glad that your ring fits now. I like looking at mine in the temple. It always seems to sparkle a little more.

That is a beautiful ring. I thought I was the only one who had to resize my ring. Just keep that lovely thing on your hand. It's perfect!
