Well, I did something bad today... I bought something. While I was at Walmart picking up diapers, I saw this super cute red sun dress. Okay, first of all, I don't wear a lot of red, and second, I don't wear a lot of dresses. I'm a skirt and shirt kind of girl. But it was just so cute I had to try it on and I really liked it, so I bought it. I'm trying to figure out why I feel so guilty about buying it. It wasn't expensive, and I love it, if it had been a pair of jeans or something more practical I don't think I would feel QUITE as guilty . There's just something about it being a "red dress" that makes me feel silly. Hmm, why do you suppose that is? I know most moms don't like to spend money on themselves, or rather, feel bad when they do. Maybe once you have kids your mind switches to "practical mode". I know I wouldn't have felt bad at all if it had been something for the kids, or even something for Luke. But a red dress? Hmm, perhaps I will just have to wear it tomorrow and see if the guilt goes away. =)
Anyway, here's a cute little video of Jacob, and that's Savannah ringing the doorbell in the background.
2 super cool people speak:
Quiet moments...How many times a day...when the kids are particularily noisy...that we wish for a few minutes...of blissful..."silence"...and then...when we actually get it for a day or for even a few hours...it is...almost TOO QUIET....(smile) We "mothers" are a fickle lot, aren't we? (smile) By-the-way..."Miss Lady in Red"...I would love to see a picture of you in that RED DRESS!!!!(smile)
don't feel bad about the dress, serene! you deserve it! and i want to see a picture, it's true, i hadn't thought about it, but you are a shirt and skirt kinda gal. this'll be fun for you! :)
