what could you possibly teach me in that short, cute little skirt

The suburban, regular girl, look strikes again.

After a parenting seminar, I hear the feedback that upon first impression a woman thought surely this will be a waste of time. She thought I was too young and too thin and too cute looking in my little suit to possibly know anything new for her about parenting. (Note: that was 9 years and 2 sizes ago…and had to borrow a suit from my cool sister.)

The feedback continues…the handout I gave has become her parenting bible and she threw out all her other books. She completely got reconnected to her purpose as a mother and was experiencing the joy in her relationship with her kids. That’s touching. I’m happy for her and her kids.

And I have to wear that shorter suit skirt again sometime. Oh, wait. I can’t get it past my hips anymore. Oh, well.
