better than a diamond....

my youngest, c, just got back from camp
he didn't love it.....
it was his first time
and he really likes just being home
even though his brother and sister were at camp, too....
he bought the sweetest gifts for each and
every one of us in the craft shop

mine was this fabulous little ring.....
he decided on it because he know i love jewelry

and i really couldn't love it more......
