When we went to France, Karen took most of her ear rings with her. Many of these were presents that our daughter-in-law, Cherise, made for her. Karen: I probably shouldn’t have taken all my favorite jewelry with me but being in Paris was so special I decided to go for it. While most things (with a few exceptions) were not valuable in terms of money, all were the things that were precious to me.
When our luggage was stolen all the ear rings were gone. So a week or so ago when Lance and Cherise came up to Cedar Rapids on a rare mid-week visit, Cherise gave Karen a box of new ear rings to replace those that were lost. Have a look! Pretty neat, huh?
This was so incredibly sweet and thoughful AND a lot of work. I appreciate having so many new things to choose from. I have a wonderful daughter-in-law.
PS – Rachel helped by choosing the beads and the colors!
Thank you to my special girls.

How sweet of Cherise! I bet you cried, huh Karen?
Wow! This was an incredibly wonderful gift. Cherise gets the prize for Best Daughter-in-law!!
Wow! Cherise is very talented–and a fast worker, too!
Beautiful! Now I want to lose my luggage in France so I can get 16 pairs of gorgeous earrings!
OK…maybe I’d wait until Augie stops trying to rip the ones I have from my ears…
Karen is the best mother-in-law a girl could ask for. As soon as I heard she had lost her earrings, I knew exactly what needed to be done. Plus, Rachel and I had fun bead shopping!
