First post-surgery compliment (?) from my husband...

[Kim n NC]

Riding in the car and my husband reached over to hold my hand last night. He started grasping my hand and feeling my fingers and said "Honey" in a tone that I thought something was wrong. When asked he said, "Your hand is smaller!" I smiled and said "I know". On the way in to the store we both noticed that it was more "comfortable" holding hands now.
I had gained so much weight that I've not been able to wear my engagement ring he gave me. I've been too embarrassed to tell him that's the reason why I don't wear it. (I had the wedding band resized.) I never wore it to work in the hospital because I was afraid of damaging it, so he thinks I've just gotten out of the habit over the years. Now my wedding band is loose and I can get the engagement ring on, a little tight still though. When they are both on and comfortable, I'm never taking them off again...lol.

That is wonderful! Those compliments from those we love are so special. I haven't tried on my rings yet. Keep up the great work!
