Prom

Wow.... I have my high school Prom in less than two months, and designed my own dress. I just realized that had I not designed my own dress, my mom wouldnt have gotten to see it. She saw it only on paper, but she still got to see it. It's going to be specially made for me. Mom and I were going to make it together, but then she got really sick. Her and I never got to go look at swatches together. I thank God everyday that she's not suffering anymore, and I thank Him for Bonnie who is sort of another grandmother to us kids. She can sew really well and will be making my dress along with some other ladies from our church. I'm so excited, but also saddened. I wanted my mom to be here to do the mom things.... take pics, go with me to get my hair and nails done, tell me if my make up looks bad....She will be here in spirit, though. And I have plenty of people who love me and are willing to play the mom part for me. I love my family.... relatives, church, and close friends.
