What a day! We had a lovely time at a local church conference. The girls behaved very well, although we still have to work on the etiquette of wearing a dress. They’re unused to having so much fabric to play with, so they can’t help but put the dress in their mouths or over their heads. At least they could entertain themselves!
I would write more, but I’m rather tired. As I told my mom tonight, it’s exhausting to have daughters who are such social butterflies. They love people, and people love them – which is a great combination, but it also requires that I love people, too! (Of course, I do…but sometimes I wish I could employ the girls’ technique of just burying my face in a nearby shoulder when I’m done talking and would rather take a nap).
Here are the girls in their dresses, right before we left for the conference:
And here we are at the end of the day – notice how the girls look much more energized than I do. I should have followed their example and napped on the car ride home!
