When we were first dating, Shaun bought me a necklace with a diamond flip-flop on it. He gave it to me the day after he told me he loved me for the first time. I wore it all the time and it holds a lot of sentimental value for me. When we moved to Texas, I couldn't find it. I looked everywhere...I mean everywhere, twice! I was devastated when I figured out that is was gone. I felt so heart-sick because Shaun had spent a lot of money on it, it was the first piece of jewelry he had ever given me (or anyone else for that matter) and I had lost it. In the past two years, every time I have thought about the necklace, I have gotten a little ill at the idea that it was gone forever.
Last night I was looking for Shaun's glove (he was going to play softball) and I found a make-up bag that I thought had gotten thrown out because all of its matching pieces were sold in a garage sale. I searched the bag half-heartedly for the necklace (as I do any old finds) not really thinking it would be there. BUT IT WAS! I nearly jumped up and hit the ceiling! You would have thought that I had won the lottery (and I kinda feel like I did). Coop was asleep so I couldn't get too loud but I ran out the the garage to catch Shaun. He wasn't nearly as excited but he was amazed too! We have been looking for so long. And really, I never thought I'd find it!
I am so glad to have it back and I will take much better care of it now!

I am glad you found your necklace, but I would rather see a picture of Cooper sleeping. But that's just me. After all I am papa Randy.
An after thought. I am sure there is a reason a guy would give a girl a shoe. No I mean a flip flop. Explain.
your wish is my command, Papa...here is a pic of Coop sleeping at your house. As for the necklace...I really wanted it. maybe it is significant because my opinion of our relationship had finally "flipped" to knowing he was the one! I am so glad to have it back!
Aimee-
I am so glad you found that. I hate the feeling of loosing something. I don't even want to think about the things I have lost in the move to CA...when we finally move into our home maybe I will completely forget about everything I had so I won't notice what is lost!
