Diamond Ring

I have an interesting story to tell. About two and a half (or maybe only two and a third) weeks ago Mom was at church rehearsing the Christmas musical when she noticed that the diamond from her wedding ring was gone. She called home and asked us to look for it. Now, her diamond is only like, a 5th of a centimeter long. So the search was pretty much hopeless. However, I looked all over just on the slim chance of finding it, but none of us did. After a day the search was basically hopeless and we knew that we wouldn't ever find it.

Monday, we did laundry. Fun chore. Well, Mom had just finished putting in a load of clothes when she noticed something sparkely on the inside rim of the washer and found what looked like a small rhinestone. You'll never guess what it was. That's right, Mom's diamond. How in the world that tiny little stone didn't get washed down the drain is beyond me! It really is a miracle that she found it, there was no possible chance it would found under normal circumstances, but found it is.

Okay, that was my little story of the day. Happy 2008!

It will probably be 2009 before I get used to writing 2008 and then I will have to get used to writing 2009 and it will probably take just as long to get used to...
