Wonderful News!!!! Dad FOUND Mom's Wedding Rings and Watch!!!!

Her Ring Is Similiar To This One - Only it's much smaller but very dainty and pretty. She has a solid gold band to go with it too.

YES!! You've read correctly!! Dad found mom's wedding rings and her watch!! He got to thinking and seemed to remember where he put them which is in her dresser drawer and went to see if he was remembering right and there they were!! Mom is so happy to have them back that she had dad help her to the car to take her to the jewelry store to have her rings repaired!! THAT'S how much the mean to her!! lol Gosh!! I'm soooo happy for her!! And I'm so happy she was able to get out of the house for a little while for it helps her spirits quite a bit to get to see a different scenery after 12 days of being stuck at her house. Good for her!! I have a BIG thank you to give to MsTickle for telling me about Saint Anthonny being the patron saint of lost things for I did pray to him and it WORKED!!!! Thank you so much MsTickle!! Bless your sweet heart!! You're a true gem!! And thank you all for praying for their safe return!! God heard our prayers and He answered in His own time but He answered nonetheless and that's all that matters!!!!

Oh gosh YES!! Darn it!! YES!! I kick myself in the rear for not asking dad for the rings so I could put them away for safe keeping. I think I did ask where he had them and he told me in his shirt pocket. I should've asked for them and they would never have gotten lost to begin with. Dang gal! A hell of a load off my shoulders!! Now lets see if we can work on the rest of it.... I'm dancing the night away!! Yippi Yi Yo!! Yippi Ya Yay!! LOL

I am so glad that you solved this mystery. I felt that you would given the circumstances. It was all so bizarre and I really was thinking the cats were the culprits.

Thank you for saying such kind things to me my friend...it was St Anthony who helped by nudging your Dad's memory. He always finds things that are lost. I've been praying to him successfully since I was a little kid. I'm glad your Mum is so happy. Keep her smiling because you know what they say...laughter is the best medicine. Thanks again...Brightest blessings to you and your family.

I only speak the truth or say nothing at all sweetie!! lol Now I've got a true but very funny story to tell you. My mom told me about it before but I completely forgot about it. My grandmother's three aunts lived together, Aunt Mary, Aunt Kruse and Aunt Cici, I guess that's how you spell their names (????) Anyway, Aunt Kruse was the bread winner, Aunt Mary cared for the house and paid the bills, and Aunt Cici was mentally retarted. When Aunt Cici had a picture of St. Anthony on her dresser and when she would lose something, she'd get all upset and tell St Anthony that she's going to make him face the wall if he doesn't help her find what ever it was she's looking for and if she didn't find it, she'd turn his picture completely around and say, "Now you're going to look at the wall until you help me find it" and she meant it too!! Everybody who heard her say that would giggle without her knowing that they heard her and when she found what she was looking for, she'd go back and turn his picture around and tell him that she found it and he can turn around now. LMBO!! She was mentally retarted so she didn't know any different but it was a funny story but a true one at that! lol Thought you'd enjoy hearing it.

I know what you mean gabs for I'm the same way. I have a few pieces that would tear my heart out if they were ever lost. Luckily dad remembered where he put them and now mom has them back!!

The timing was right, because it was motivation to your mom to get out of the house and see more territory. I am glad that we all can send our loving and caring your way. Things may begin to look up for all of you. This is a good thing. Keep us posted, as always.

Actually he didn't misplace them, he forgot where he put them which was in her dresser drawer. He just so happened to remember where he did put them and got them out. Mom was fit to be tied! She was some kind of happy!

Yes it is good news and thank you. Yes good things happen to everyone and so does bad things as well. I'm just so happy things have made a turn around in at least one thing that's going on in my life. The rest will come in due time, God willing.

I couldn't agree more Hatley. I couldn't agree more! Now I have enough in donations to help her get them repaired. She wants them back so badly and so I'm giving her what we have so far so she can do so.

Wao! That was good news! sometimes we lose things within the house where we put them safely but never get to remember them-I onces hid about $100 and found 5 years later-it was so exciting becuse I had thought I had lost it

It's great that he found them...I've got a little gold ring that I wore on my finger for the longest time and I kept losing it so now it's on a chain around my neck with my cross. I'd be heartbroken if I lost it. [b]~~AT PEACE WITHIN~~ **STAND STRONG AND TRUST IN GOD**[/b]
