    Roses In The Rocks

    Eight dozen altogether, ninety-six roses placed by strong, gentle hands into the craggy rocks.

    Made to look as though they’d sprung up there spontaneously in the summer twilight, as though planted by God Himself, in the rough but discernable shape of a tender heart.

    And with the roses, a diamond ring, and the promise of forever transcending both the frailty of the rose and the permanence of the rock.

    In the center of the heart of blooms, three words scribbled in the dirt. “I love you…” Longer than the rocks or the roses, the center will hold.

    He loves you, our little girl, our beautiful grown up baby woman.

    Our Carrie. Your Marc.

    Love him with all your heart.

    1. Congratulations, Carrie! And that has got to be one of the most romantic proposals I’ve ever heard of…

    2. What a lovely proposal. And what an exciting time in Carrie’s (and your!) life.

      May Jesus richly bless.

    3. Congratulations to a handsome couple…and the parents!  It would be wonderful to see a picture of the roses among the rocks.  (Hint, hint!)

    6. Congratulations and Best Wishes.

      May the blessings continue to pour forth.

      And I’ll pray that the bride’s parents survive yet another sign of a new season of life.

      God Bless,

      Thanks everybody! (btw, the whole rose thing was only part of the story—a very long, detailed story. He did a great job!

    9. Hi,
      I have a diamond and I want to buy a diamond ring solitaire setting to set it in. Where is the best place to go?Can anyone please tell me?

    10. The engagement ring isn’t the only one you will need. You will also need to find a wedding band. This is usually much less complicated though. Often times you can purchase them in a set which makes it a lot easier.
