What Do I Want For Mother's Day?

 I have been thinking a lot about Mother's Day, mostly because Junior keeps asking me what I want.  If I'm being honest, I would tell him I want jewelry.  We have been married for almost fifteen years, and my engagement and wedding rings are the only pieces of jewelry he has ever given me. 

I know he can't afford to spend much, so I was looking for reasonably priced jewelry, and found this gorgeous pendant.  I love that it has five diamonds.  Each one represents a member of my little family.

I heard you just say "awww".  I did too. I bet that you can't tell that the diamonds are made in Diamond Nexus Labs and that they are not "real" diamonds. I couldn't tell.  They sparkle and shine like "real" diamonds, and I don't think people would know they weren't the real thing. 

The next time Junior asks what I want for Mother's Day, I am going to point him to this necklace.  I want it to be from him.  I still want the kids to shop for me themselves, even if it means another purple sparkly pen and elephant. 

Because I love those gifts more than anything.

Nobody would know they're not real diamonds, except that you told them! :P

I like it - it's really pretty.

It is pretty, isn't it? They have so many nice pieces, it was really hard deciding which was my favorite.

My son (the older one) asked me what I wanted for Mother's Day the other day. He does this around any holiday where I am gift-entitled. Then i tell him what I want, and he buys me something else - normally that I do NOT want! I got a video game for Christmas (I hate video games) and I've gotten movies (that he likes) for birthdays. I had to get my husband involved this year! That necklace would be nice, though!

Stacey ~ I am waiting for that to kick in with my son, though if he ever gave me a video game, I would probably love it! lol!
