She sat in her bedroom by herself. On her little bed. In a pair of sweats&a tee shirt. Staring at her closet. Her brow wrinkled.
She didn't know what to wear.It was a hurried next 14 minutes. She put on too many shirts. 3 dresses. A pair of jeans. 4 sweaters. 2 skirts. Halfway through she laughed at herself. It was ridiculous. So she stopped. And fixed her hair and put some dark pink lipstick on. Then she began again.
The sun streamed in through the window.
Ribbon was all over her bed.
She was still trying on clothes.
After 21 minutes in all, she walked out of her room wearing a white knit shirt with a cute neckline and a pair of jean shorts. Simplest thing in the world. She didn't even look incredible. Just normal.
But sometimes, she just had to try on all her clothes to feel like a lady.

This morning was a glass of milk and prayers while sitting on the kitchen floor. Then getting dressed in that flurried way. And now I'm listening to Coldplay. Talk about delight.
Optical appointment today. That means a trip to Costco. Even more delight. And getting to try on snazzy pairs of lenses. Score.
