If at first you don’t succeed

Try ... and try ... and retry again.

Ellis comes to our house once a week after school to play games, create art, and eat dinner (always followed by  a scoop of ice cream). Her favorite thing recently is to go through my very limited jewelry box to try things on …



Not that there’s a lot to try on, since most of what I had has already been given to our daughters. I did keep this ring, though …




Now let’s see if my workaround with photos sticks 🤞 ... Dang it … obviously not

Okay, maybe the third time's the charm. Yep ... that did it ... for now.

    1. We are a barefoot family and Ellis had shed her other sock shortly after I snapped her picture … for sure I’ll post a story about the ring and the Remember 2026 patch that it inspired

  5. All good here. All my rings sit in a jewlry box as my knuckles are to big for the rings to slip over. Lucky you to have someone that loves to play dressup with jewels. I used to love wearing all the custume jewelry I would find at thrift stores. The ring you are wearing is beutiful.
