Me too! It sure makes it that much more romantic that we struggled so hard and we found it. Makes Jesus’ parable about the Lost Sheep that much more poignant.

I thought of Jesus’ parables myself.

When we bought my engagement ring, we discussed having 4 prongs or 6 with the jeweler.

He explained the difference and how with four prongs the diamond showed up better but how if one of the prongs broke, the diamond could slide out.

I figured that the slight difference in appearance that the six prongs made wasn’t going to be noticeable enough to warrant the risk of losing the stone if one of the prongs broke.
