the night of our wedding my h gave me a pair of diamond earings... this christmas he gave me a new pair with slightly larger stones..shortly there after I lost a back to one of the original (sentimental) pair...and had left them on the window cill to remind myself to get a new back for it.
well while cleaning up lunch i ran the disposal heard a noise...son asks what's that noise..I said something must be in there..son says oh it's your glass things...he put them there cause he didn't like them. I kept fishing in the disposal for 5 min while in tears hoping to find them...nope but did find a mangled pair of loop earings that h had given me for my birthday last year.
I called h...h said we can get a new pair...I don't want a new pair...I already have a new pair...I don't know why my son does these things to me.
I appologized to h for being so emotional h said no need it's understandable and that he's going to finish up where he is and come right home to check the pipes to see if they may be there...I hope so but I doubt it...they are small and light and are probably gone. I had hoped to one day give them to my daughter perhaps on her 16th birhtday but now I will only have a pair that have no real meaning to pass on. i can't stop myself from continuing to search the disposal knowing full well they aren't there and I can't stop these foolish tears either.
well if nothing else...h's reaction does show me that he cares.
