Sometimes It's The Little Things

---

This husband and I…

Stopped by the Antiques Extravaganza…enjoy antiques…in an extravagant…kind of way…

Pretty much like any other antique show…but something about the title…made it more fun…walked the carpet…from vendor to vendor…in awe of…

The glitz and glam…of vintage glass…befriended other vase collectors…became the resident swung glass tid bit sharer…

The spectacular display…of old time pens…the Parker twin of that birthday gift…resting on top…saying hello…

The lavish cases of glistening jewels…that date of mine…seemingly drawn to case after case…when that motive of his suddenly…becomes clear…

Choosing a ring…a green ring…his birthstone ring…he slips it on the arthritic finger…of his anything…but glamorous bride…

And 25 dollars later…newly bejeweled me…left that ballroom…feeling special…feeling beautiful…feeling loved…

Because sometimes it’s the little things…a wink…a smile…an unexpected sparkly gem…that can make you feel…like a winner…
​
And this husband of mine…agrees…
