the suspense is over

I have been excited about a certain present that I knew I was getting from Ryan and yesterday... it came! I have to apologize because I tried but couldn't get a single good photo. (it's too small to focus in on and the metal reflects the light) anyway you'll get the basic idea. This is our version of the shoe necklace - where you have a baby shoe with birthstone for each child. I saw a ring like this in the Sundance catalog and we just built on the idea.
The circle is our family and Belén is represented by the single Amethyst (her birthstone - February). As the years pass and we add kids to our family we'll add their stones to the ring - they'll all contribute to the shape and value and uniqueness of our family and this ring.
