Ruby

This is my granny's ruby ring. She and my grandpa lived on a farm and worked hard to make ends meat. She worked at a cabinet factory when my momma was little. Sometime in her marriage my grandpa bought her this ruby ring. When she passed away in July- almost a year ago- this was what she left me.
One night as J and I were talking about my wedding ring he said. What if we used your grandma's ring? I was so excited. I still have no idea how we'll go from flower ring to vintage wedding band. But come October 13th we'll know. And as he slips that ring on my finger I'll be happy that even though she's not there in person, granny will be there in ruby ring form :-)
