When we lose something precious, many of us eventually make peace with the fact that we'll never get it back. Not so for a woman from Canada who lost her engagement ring -- only to find it 13 years later. In her garden. On a carrot. 。
SEE ALSO:That older couple from those wonderful engagement photos finally tied the knot 。84-year-old Mary Grams, from Alberta, Canada, lost her engagement ring back in 2004 when pulling up a big weed in her garden. Grams, who was given the ring in 1951 a year before marrying husband Norman, believed she'd never see the ring again. 。

"We looked high and low on our hands and knees," Grams told CBC. "We couldn't find it. I thought for sure either they rototilled it or something happened to it." 。
Grams replaced the ring not long after losing it, and she didn't tell her husband what had happened.。
"I didn't tell him, even, because I thought for sure he'd give me heck or something," said Grams, who has since moved house. Her son and daughter-in-law now live at the farm where the ring was lost.。

But, 13 years later, it has finally shown up. 。
When Grams' daughter-in-law, Colleen Daley, was pulling carrots for dinner, she found a one carat surprise (geddit?!). 。

Daley asked her husband if he recognised the ring and he recounted the story about his mother losing her engagement ring in the garden. 。
"If you look at it, it grew perfectly around the carrot. It was pretty weird looking," Daley added. She said she'd never seen anything like it before. 。

Sadly, Grams' husband passed away five years ago not long after the pair celebrated 60 years of marriage. 。
