Goodbye good friend. We've spent 10 years together, but alas, you've tarnished from the swim lessons pool and are no longer fit to be on my toe. You've left your mark though, a nice little tan line and small indent to remind me of our years together whenever my eye catches my toe.
We met in the mall, and it was love at first glance. I mean how could I not love you? You were silver, and covered with dolphins, just what I was looking for to replace my first toe ring who had sucumbed to a pedicure gone wrong. You were just my size, and you settled into my toe knuckle right away.
We've seen so much together - marriage, childbirth x2, the Atlantic Ocean, the Pacific Ocean, Lake Tahoe, Italy. We've loved shoes together, and mourned the loss of shoes together. You've been stifled in socks in the winter, and breathed free in sandals in the summer.
Goodbye good friend. You'll be forever memoralized in Miranda's homemade video that begins with us four college girls and our toes.

A sad day indeed. Did you have a memorial service? Where should I send my memoria bouquet that I have on order. Its in the shape of a toe ring.
Call me if you need to talk.
Thank you for your kind thoughts. All bouquets can be sent to my living room,where my toe ring currently sits, unable to be worn, but not yet ready to be tossed.
When should we arrive for the viewing?
Should I bake a ham or a casserole?
