Diamonds Are A Girls Best Friend

Francie and I had lunch the other day with my friend Dawn at one of our old favorite spots. Francie was a good girl and sat in her high chair most of lunch but when she got a little antsy I let her crawl around on the floor behind my chair while Dawn and I caught up on some gossip. A lady walked by and picked up something Francie found on the ground and put it on the table looking at me like "hello, choking hazard bad mom"  Dawn and I looked closer and it was a diamond earring with the stud broken off. It was in the walkway/dirt and had been there for awhile so we figured it was a fake "cubic zirconia" or a mall wanna be :)  We did the old test as a joke and scratched the water glass and sure enough it left a big ole scratch but we were still thinking it was an imposter. We walked over to a jewelry store to find out.... it is a REAL 2 carat diamond estimated to be worth nine thousand dollars! Francie has good taste in her choking hazards!! We did check with the restaurant to see if anyone had lost an earring and check the lost and found in the paper, so unless the rightful owner is reading this and can identify it (big and sparkly doesn't count) Heff says it has to go in her college fund but Francie told me she wants to go to Vegas and enter the World Series of Poker like her Uncle Jerry :)

Good work Francie :)

She was worn out after that!
