A bonding moment!
Cheesy junk jewelry is easy to find but this mattered ... A lot. These are nice earrings with substance. The lab ruby looks like a rich coffee and the way the light hits the cut of the ruby it looks a little bit like the coffee is sloshing in the cup. That's cool!<br />My Daddy and I spent long hours sharing over coffee. We were enjoying our coffee and talking the night away up to a few hours before his sudden fatal heart attack. There was a lot of love over those coffee moments. I passed the legacy on to my kids. My daughter and I share morning texts as we have our coffee. We have also shared many hours of coffee time together since she was old enough to want her own coffee. We chase after new coffee flavors, try every new brand. I don't have a coffee when I don't think about my Daddy and she doesn't have a coffee when I don't come to her mind.<br />On December 1st my baby will be 52 years old and this will be her first birthday that we have shared in over 20 years. Everything has to be special for her. I never thought about looking for something like these earrings but when I accidentally saw them while perusing for gifts I couldn't hit 'buy now' fast enough! I was nervous, afraid that this perfect find would turn out to be junk. When they arrived I was so excited/apprehensive to see them ... I put the unopen shipping bag on my desk for a few days. I couldn't stand to be disappointed. When I opened them and saw them, I was thrilled, delighted, plumb tickled! Oh, she's going to love these earrings! Earrings and her wedding band is all the jewelry she wears. She's a nanny so jewelry has to be at a minimum to avoid baby grabs. With the wire loop she can trim the wire to position the coffee cups closer to her ear. My friend gifted me some earrings that hung too long for my liking and I cut the wire to make them shorter.<br />Coffee lover or barista will enjoy these lovely little earrings but for me and my daughter they will always be more special than coffee or jewelry or even a birthday. They will truly be reminders of always and devoted love between my daughter and me.
