Brilliance

"These gems have life in them: their colors speak, say what words fail of." George Eliot

I have a "mother's ring." I wear it all the time and enjoy looking at the six gems in it; the birthstones of my two sons, daughter-in-law, and three grandchildren. It sparkles on my finger just as these wonderful people add brilliance to my life.

Are there words in the English language to adequately describe what it is to be a mother and a grandmother? I wonder. My ring, however, speaks volumes.
