The wedding ring - a tribute to a long and happy marriage....

Our eldest is now married. Kurt married Stephanie on July 8, 2009! What a lovely wedding! What an amazing couple! They had quite a few pictures taken of their wedding rings. One was with their grandmothers' hands holding the rings. Those aged hands - filled with many memories, hard work and love - holding brand new, shiny wedding rings.

I want to share an exerpt with you about wedding rings from "Ohio Weddings" by Beth Laughner. This is a story about a couple who had been married for a while.... "Nathan's wedding ring. (Judi had found it.) Carefully she lifted the ring and held it between her fingers. The beaded edge was slightly worn and Judi smiled sadly. The jeweler had explained that over the years the edging of their matching rings would eventually wear down into a radiant, shiny gold ---- a tribute to a long and happy marriage......" So, my beloved readers, when you look at your wedding rings, remember the covenant you made to each other. Honor that covenant, and you too, will have radiant, long and happy marriages.

This is a picture of Paul's wedding band. It used to be brushed gold - it is now shiny and smooth! How cool is that?
