Sydney’s New Dress: Simple Things Sunday

Last week, Sydney came downstairs and said “mommy, I want a new dress”.  She is only 2.5 and had never asked us for anything before.  So that afternoon she and I went shopping.  It was one of the most wonderful afternoons I have ever had.

She held my hand and chatted with me while we walked to the store, and then I let her go.  She looked at all of the clothing and commented on the colors and how the material felt.

She knew what she was looking for, and as I reached for things that were taller than her she told me either “yes” or “no”.

This is the dress that she settled on.  I did not suggest shoes or the head piece, but did not even think of saying “no”.

She looks so beautiful- not because of the dress, but because she is so happy while wearing it.
