I finally got to shop a little a few weeks ago and thought I'd take the time now to show you, before things got too hectic. My husband had to take me, so I really had to make my mind up, in a hurry. Since butterflies have a special meaning for Ashley, I decided on this, for the birth of Gus. <br /><br />
For those that don't know about my husband and my tradition when we get a new grandchild, I'll try to copy and paste. Here is a little silver spoon for Gus,too.
Added the ring photo, from Nora's birth. Also, one of Ashley wearing it after her birth.<br /><br />

This is the jewelry, I finally decided to get for my daughter, when she has the baby.We, my husband and I, give our 2 girls and 1 daughter-in-law, a piece of jewelry, every time they give us a grandchild.....That is probably why we have so many,LOL. Anyway, I couldn't find anything, in my price range (you know I do have a reasonable limit-LOL), that I really liked and also, thought she would like, until I found this.What do you think?.. I told my niece today, that we have been to the labor and delivery 3 times and there are 4 wraps on this ring. Maybe that is a sign the fourth time we will have the baby ! ...Let me tell you what I did with my older daughter when she had her last baby, 11 years ago, and I am worse now! When Ty was born, we gave her a pretty sapphire necklace.When she opened it, I could tell she looked oddly at it, so I told her if it was not something she liked, I am sure she could exchange it. She was silent for a while longer so I told her, it wouldn't hurt my feelings, as I wanted her to enjoy it. Her response to me was, "I really like it. I liked it 2 years ago, when you bought me the same piece, when Lanie was born!" LOL ...LOL I KNOW I didn't buy this ring before, although when Ashley's twins were born, I did buy 2 pieces of blue topaz. Hope you enjoy knowing someone like me, Toogie
