A lovely co-worker recently gave me a beautiful dress that she wore often when she was pregnant. While I was in love with the look of the long blue frock with a lovely yellow and white damask pattern, I was rather scared of the tag that read "Medium." Fortunately, I was pleasantly surprised that not only could I fit into it, it hugged my body in all the right places, making it rather flattering. This morning I decided to wear it to work.
When Harry woke up, he saw me and said, "Is that a new dress? You look really nice." About 20 minutes later when Bianca got up, she looked at me and said, "You look beautiful, Mommy." Talk about a wonderful start to my day! The compliments didn't stop there, though. I received several complimentary remarks from different co-workers. It made me feel good.
It's amazing what a confidence in your abilities to perform your job well combined with a sense of pride in your looks can do for a woman! I was super productive today!
After Alexandra is born and our finances get back in order, I think I need to invest in more clothes that make me look and feel fabulous.
