Thank Goodness for Moms

http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/38656028/ns/today-today_weddings

We have all heard it before:  Boy is going to pop the big question, but does something stupid with the ring.  It falls down a sewer grate, off of bridge, down 10 flights of stairs, (or in this case, off of a sand dollar that was tied to a pier post,and into the ocean).  But it always ends up found and fine in the end, right? 

Not in the story above.  After four hours of fruitless searching, the would-be groom, distraught bride, and a handful of good Samaritans had to give up with the rising tide.  I could see the article's end in sight, but no ring had been retrieved. 

Could it really be a sad ending?  Not quite.  So as not to ruin the surprise for you, I will say only this:  Thank goodness for mothers who predict the dumb behavior of their children, and plan for it accordingly!
