Okay, so today was Cathy's induction into the Middle School Chapter of the National Honor Society. Last night we decided together what dress she was going to wear, no problems there... She woke up this morning and went to get dressed when I told her to put on a slip. To say that she objected to my request would be putting it mildly. She had a bit of a fit "I do not need a slip", "I am going to look stupid", all of this with tears wailing up in her eyes over a slip, a slip that nobody was going to see.
After some bickering back and forth between the two of us, and me trying to explain to her (which let me add here a slip is not a new concept to her or in our house) that anytime a lady of any age wears a dress a slip is appropriate, she proceeded to get dressed slip and all then pouted the rest of the morning, especially upon me telling her that she needed to wear her sweater as it was cool out this morning. But all that being said, it was a really nice ceremony and her daddy and I are SO VERY PROUD of her!
