The Engagment RING

Today was an easygoing day with work. I was able to work from home nad now just watching the tennis match.  I went for a run this morning and i could not help but look at sparkle coming from my engagement ring.  Before Mr. Pancakes and i became engaged, we (well ok mostly I) would talk about rings and what kind of ring i wanted.  Only knowing about the Princess cut, solitaire, white gold, i continued to mention that this is the type of ring i wanted.  To be honest, i am not even sure what a princess diamond looks like, i have only heard about it during my forays on theknot.com.  Therefore, when Mr. Pancakes proposed back in June, i was more than excited about the proposal and the realization that this amazing man was asking me to become his wife! Secondly, i was excited about the RING.  It was beautiful, it wasn't a princess cut however it was a round 1.25 diamond in a 14k band.  I mean when he put it on, i was in love immediately, it sparkled and it shined and it made me smile and still makes me smile. I mean it is a beautiful ring and i couldn't be happier with how Mr. Pancakes made this decision on his own.  I am sure it wasn't the most exciting thing he had to do; going ring shopping (he goes in and out of a shop and gets what he needs) but he did! And in the end, i got the ring that is meant to be on my hand for many, many and many years to come.

I chose the ring. I could not risk letting him get the wrong ring.

Mr Pancakes is sure a romantic man :) and he knows how to please his woman ;)
