I don't know what to say. I am hurt!
A few weeks ago we went out to the park as a family. The girls were having fun, but we weren't. So we decided to just take a walk. The Temple here in St. George is walking distance from the park so we decided to take a walk and just hang out there for a while. When we got there there was a couple taking wedding pictures and Velani kept starring at the bride's dress and then she said the following:
"Wow, she is a princess! you see mami I told you! you have to be a princess."
What!?
What does she mean I have to be a princess?
I mean don't I already look like one? Oh wait, no I don't!
I was a "princess" 4 years ago and I guess I kinda lost it a little after my first child and then completely lost it after the second one.
I thought our children always saw us as princesses and beautiful, but not my 3 year old, oh no! she knows exactly what her mom looks like and apparently she doesn't look like a princess at all and that's why she told me I had to be one. I guess I'll have to start looking a little more like one and less like a person who cleans, mops, and well, less like a mommy.
I will take her advice and start little by little. I started with a nice new haircut and now I gotta start dressing better.
You know, I'm starting to actually feel better now. When I dress up and fix myself up I feel better about myself than when I don't and that's exactly what I need, to feel better so I can do better.
