Feeling Naked

We took this picture on our honeymoon.

Before we got married, I never wore rings. Or any jewelry, really. Not my thing, I guess. It took me quite a while to get used to wearing my wedding band. I used to fidget with it all the time. Sometimes I would even take it off to do dishes because it was so uncomfortable.

Now, I don't really notice anymore. In fact, a couple weeks ago we were playing Red Rover at youth ministry (we are volunteer leaders for the senior high at our church), and I had to take my ring off for it. It was the first time in a while. My hand felt so naked without it! I kept rubbing my fingers together in discomfort. It just didn't feel right. I was relieved to finally put it back on at the end of the game.
