Remember that part on E.T……..
And isn’t it amazing how extremely difficult it is when you are so excited for your daughter to wear the darling jumper you got her for school and as soon as she puts it on (without even looking in the mirror) she declares she doesn’t like it and will not wear it? Oh, my heavens–I think my blood pressure spiked!….And all that hard-earned money down the drain… I didn’t handle it too well, I’m afraid, even though I know exactly what the good mom thing to do is. But I apologized during breakfast and told her that she is not the only one who has ever been particular about her clothing. I was a bit the same way. So I should understand. I’m trying to understand. Maybe she’ll like it when she tries it on tomorrow…
