I LOVE PINK!

The first time I realized I was a Girly Girl was when one of my sons said "Mom you're such a Photobucket" like it was a bad thing.
So I asked "What's wrong with being a girly girl?"
I thought my son's reaction was kind of funny "You're suppose to be my mom!" I just laughed and said "well I'm your mom and I LOVE being a GIRL!!"


I LOVE PINK!
I LOVE LACEY THINGS!
I LOVE GETTING DRESSED UP!
I LOVE CARRYING PINK.

I LOVE WEARING PINK-ESPECIALLY ON MY FEET

I'm one of those women that you usually don't see in sneakers and sweats. I clean in sweats and sometimes sleep in them but never do I go out in them, other than to the mail box. If I'm cleaning at home in my sweats, and then have to go to the store, I'll change clothes and do my hair. Sometimes, depending on my mood I'll put on makeup, but not always. Although there have been times I've run to the paint store, in the middle of painting, with paint in my hair etc...but I'll still at least change out of my sweats. There are certain items I don't feel are appropriate to wear in public. But that's just me, I certainly wouldn't look down on anyone who does.


I LOVE WEARING DRESSES!

Sometimes I'll wear one "just because"! I remember one time meeting a girlfriend for lunch and I wore a skirt, she asked me why I was dressed up? It was a very casual skirt and I just felt like wearing one, besides "I'M A GIRL!"

My friend is not a girly girl. In fact I'm not sure if I've ever seen her in anything that says "girl". But I did get her to wear pink once! But I don't try to change her and she doesn't try to change me.There's no reason to. My reasons for dressing up are simply because I like to. I do wear jeans almost all the time, but I've usually got a cute top with it, not a sweatshirt and sneakers. Not that there is anything wrong with that either! I just love being a girl! I love wearing pink, jewelry, and doing my hair! I want to LOOK like a girl! And I do it by dressing MODESTLY!

While I embrace my femaleness and I express it with everything sweet, pink and well girly, I don't try to change those who express it differently. Well, unless there is a deeper issue, like trying to hide the fact that they are female because of things in the past they haven't dealt with. But that's another whole post! :-)

If you're still reading I'm sure you're wondering the purpose of my post. Well I have no idea other than today I felt like telling everyone that

And I've had some physically and emotionally exhausting days and didn't feel like getting too thoughtful today!

  1. PREACH IT, GIRL! Now, I will wear sweats...but they must be "cute" sweats...and I ALWAYS have a cute top on with sweats...a bright vneck tee, or a bright, cute sweatshirt...I am so girly that even though I do wear sweats, I don't even wear them RIGHT, because I want to be girly...oh...and I must have cute shoes for my sweats...not just sneakers...THEY MUST MATCH! Pretty pitiful, huh? But then , you and I were always a like...even in high school!

    GO, GIRLY GIRLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  2. OK, it is completely eluding me right now, but isn't there a song from some musical about loving being a girl? It's going to drive me nuts until I can think of it...But I'll try to get on with life. LOL
    I came over to meet you and thank you for visiting my blog recently, and when I looked at your profile I felt like we must be friends. I see Kathy Troccoli is one of your favorites, and she is number one on my list!
    And you're a PA girl? Though I have never lived there, my entire family is from PA.
    So, it's nice to meet you!!!

  3. i enjoyed your "not too thoughtful" post. thanks for sharing what makes you feel girly. i think we all should get in touch with that side of us (if we haven't already).

    i love pink, too. when shopping, i always gravitate to the pink. sometimes i just have to say, "no! you have enough pink." and i would never think to go out in sweats either. just not me.

  4. I'm with ya- I get dressed up every chance I get, just b/c it makes me feel good. I say let's celebrate our feminimity. I love anything "lady like." Most of my friends would tell you I'm the prissy one in our group. And proud of it- I say! (smiles!)

  5. I'm glad there are some girly girls around, although I'm not one. I hate wearing dresses and don't have a single pink item in my wardrobe! I do like to dress up sometimes, though and you would never see me in sweats!

  6. I love being a girl too! I don't necessarily like pink, but I feel more comfortable in dresses then pants!
