prom

Today my daughter is going to her prom.  
Grace for me today is seeing how excited she is -as she is not a girly-girl and doesn't like to conform to expected traditions.
She is wearing a lightweight turquoise sari that her uncle brought her from Dubai.  It has dark pink trim and sequined flowers.  Mr. Piltcher offered to make her a crochage at a cheaper price and she was excited -she picked pink roses and white orchids.  Who would have ever guessed?
And today I am the up-do specialist...including the the use of turquoise and pink ribbon, and a sequined-feather bird.  It is great to mom in the best sense of the word.  I didn't think I would have this special opportunity!
I am grateful and graced!
