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. 。
