I don’t know why this made me cry but I’m so glad you wrote about it. 😭 Tonight we were watching the Grammy’s and admiring everyone walking the red carpet. One of my girls looked at a woman’s dress and said, “She should put more clothes on!” I was so sad in that moment. I felt like I had failed my girls if they could look at a woman and feel like they had the right to tell someone to cover up more of themselves. I tried to gently tell them that people are free to dress however they want because it’s their bodies but I didn’t want them to feel bad or take away from the evening. I’m hoping to have a conversation later about it and help them see the beauty in everyone being free to be who they are.
Anyway, I just wanted to say that I think I would’ve initially felt like you, Angie, but that I absolutely see where E was coming from. I don’t want that world for my girls. I want them to be who they are, dress the way they want, and find happiness in that freedom.
P.S. Ri wore an oversized Billabong tshirt of Lindsey’s and black leggings to church today. She was making her own fashion statements and sticking to it! 😁
Damn Ang 🙌🏼 I’ll take a blanket but only offered as gender neutral for comfort and coziness thank you.
