My mom has this crazy habit of losing things, replacing them, and then finding the one that was lost soon afterwards. The best example is her wedding ring. She's lost her wedding ring more times than I can count in my memories, let alone how often she lost it before I started paying attention. To date she's on her 2nd and 3rd ring (both of which she actually still has). I don't remember when ring #2 came into the picture, but it was lost once again right before her birthday about 6 years ago. Surprise! Surprise! She gets ring #3 on her birthday after finding it in this antique shop while out on the coast. Surprise! Surprise! She finds ring #2 the next evening while moving furniture around.
Ring #3 (pictured above) is probably my favorite of the two, but don't tell her that. She should also be happy to know that I found it, again, at the bottom of the laundry basket this morning.
