What started as a humble dedication to moms has grown into a national tradition in which thousands of kids can express their feelings on the importance of their moms.¿ Professional Jeweler- 2006.¿I remember the day in May 1993, when I was interviewing jeweler Michael Watson about his very first WHY MOM DESERVES A DIAMOND® contest. Just then, a teenager walked into the store with her mother. They came to pick up the first prize ¿ a diamond the girl had won for her mother by writing the best entry. I don't know who was more excited: the girl, her mother, Michael or I. All I know is that I still feel tingly recalling that moment.¿ Dorothy Jean, writer.
