Apr. 11, 2008 - Feeling Free
I am not a girlie girl. I just started wearing pink again about a year and a half ago. That was a stretch. I haven't worn dresses or skirts unless I had to since I was a very little girl. In fact, up until about 2 months ago I only owned one skirt and no dresses. I still don't own any dresses. But my skirt collection has grown to 6! Although, one is pretty dressy so it will be reserved for church or special occasions.
Why is this blog-worthy? Well it probably isn't. :) But I have had this picture in my mind for over a year now. Every time I think about being free (from sin, from struggles, from anything oppressive) I am always in a skirt. This is very odd for me as wearing skirts are so NOT natural.
Well I've decided to act on it. I got dressed this morning in my pretty, flowing, denim skirt. I'm still not sure on the physics of how a denim skirt can flow but it does. I have had a smile on my face all day! I feel so totally different and I love it.
I'm pretty sure I'm not going skirts only. There are some things that I will have to wear pants to do comfortably. And I'm not so sure about the whole winter and skirts thing. But I am looking forward to a wonderfully free spring, summer, and fall!
Nathaniel asked me why there wasn't any oxygen is space. Being the awesome, always turned on and ready to help my kids learn mom that I am, I told him I didn't know. Hey, I was busy trying not to get us killed while driving around town with all the crazies. He sat there for a couple of seconds and said, oh I know, it's because there aren't any trees! He amazes me everyday with his reasoning skills.

Hello again,
You have been gone for a while now. I even quit checking your blog. Then tonight I thought, let me go and see, just in case, and there you are writing again. I know how you felt in your skirt, I feel the same way. My two daughters who still live at home and I only wear skirts. Even to work in the yard or garden, they wear their skirts. They said that the breeze flows under their skirts in the summer and it helps to keep them cool. In the winter time, I just put on a pair of thermal pants and put on my boots that come up to my knees and I'm set for any kind of weather. Anyways, pants or skirts, Jesus still loves us. :--) Keep in touch, Talk later.
