I found MER....

I have found my ring!!!! I am so excited. I have had the hardest time deciding on the ring that I want. I am so happy to report that I have found the ring that produced the reaction that I never thought I would have! Let me back up and tell you how it happened....

I decided last week that I would continue my quest to find the "perfect ring" on today. I figured that I would choose a different jewelry store each day this week to visit after work. By switching up stores I figured I wouldn't wear out my welcome at any one place with my constant questions and indecisive nature. I figured today I would head to the indoor shopping center here in New Bern aka the Twin Rivers Mall. When I walked in I had all intentions of going to Zales because I figured they would have a great selection of rings. At the last moment I decided to head into Kay Jewelers mainly because of their advertised motto of "Every kiss begins with Kay". I'm thinking surely they won't let me down!

Well, I walk in only to discover the workers playing a nice game of cards seeing as though the indoor shopping center was empty (as always). David, an older gentleman, introduced himself to me and I told him that I wanted to look at engagement rings. I told him I was interested in the three stone rings and he showed me the case that contained them. The first ring he showed me was ok. I liked it but it just wasn't doing it for me. He showed me another one that round stones versus the princess cut that I have come to love. I thought that ring was really nice because there was spacing between the three stones and I hadn't seen that yet. The center stone was also raised and it really stood out. I liked it too but again...it was no princess cut!

He showed me another three stone ring that had a very plain band. I wasn't feeling it at all. He got up and walked to another case and brought MER (My Engagement Ring) back. It was almost like the heavens opened and the great God Almighty spoke to me and "My child that's the one". Seriously though...I started grinning and I knew it! It was the one...i've finally found MER!
