Mom claimed it was taken before a “cowboy” themed concert. And my reply was, “But LOOK at those shoes!!! And those jeans!!!”
That was another nightmare. Finding jeans that were long enough.
This was taken before my first high school dance. I was taller than my date and tried everything I could to slouch down… inconspicuously. I mean, look at that perfectly normal stance. I also bought the flattest of flat shoes. Oh, and I rolled my ankle playing volleyball a few days before, so I was also limping. Cute.
OOo, did you notice those sexy pantyhose? You know, the ones you wore that you thought made your legs look naturally tanned and shiney? That no one could tell you were wearing?
MMM glad those are no longer worn. Right? Do people still wear those?
I am pretty sure Gwyn is going to be a tall one too, and I just hope that we can teach her to hold her head high and be proud of her height. Something I, as a child and teen, was embarrassed of. It wasn’t until later in high school that I finally appreciated being tall. Sure, times can be embarrassing and awkward as “the tall girl,” but being tall definitely has its benefits later in life and I am going to do my best to show her what those are.
