clothes shopping with my mother

Saturday, December 26, 2009

Had a not so proud moment today when I sulked from a comment from my mother. I put down the jacket (instead of buying it anyway) that I knew was cute because she said that it did not "make me look skinny". I could have anticipated that we would disagree and steel myself to not personalize the remark. Instead I disappointed myself with a childish reaction.

My mother is always going to speak her mind. When am I going to accept that?

    it is hard to hear a comment from a loved one that is unexpected - and even tho you reacted in a way that you are not happy with, you could have reacted worse. you didn't say something wrong or buy something that when you got home you would regret. continue to take each day at a time and soon she will only be able to say how great everything looks on you - you are an inspiration! really!
