When Scott and I decided to marry we went to find that special ring, I picked out a band and he basically said no.  So we looked some more and ended up with a pretty diamond ring in a unique setting that I still love.  From the beginning of our marriage Scott’s ring rarely made it onto his finger so I decided hmmmm he doesn’t wear his, I won’t wear mine.  Well I’ve thought a lot about “the ring” and I came to the conclusion that I don’t need a ring to know I’m married.  My heart sparkles because I’m married, I love being married, and I act like I’m married so all is good.  This last Christmas, Scott asked if I’d want a new ring which I thought was funny because I’d actually thought maybe I’d like a new ring but hadn’t said anything to anyone about it.  While in Utah for our Christmas celebrations we went to the Gateway Mall.  I knew of a jewelry store there so we checked it out and found a few sparkly things but I couldn’t decide and didn’t want to buy on impulse so we talked it over while eating some sushi :)   Needless to say we went back and found a sparkly sparkly ring that is just me…simple with a little bit of spark.  I”m not quite used to wearing it but I love it and not only does my heart sparkle but so does my finger.
