The Little Princess

124D3EBB-A5B4-4930-9EF3-AB9B789850E9Introducing Princess Adele,” Sharon said to her friends as her four year old daughter came into the living room. “Doesn’t she look precious in the princess dress I made for her for Halloween?”

There were a lot of oohs and ahhs from the small group of women in Sharon’s living room. “I didn’t know you could sew so well,” one of the women said.

“Did you follow a pattern?” another woman asked.

“How long did it take you to make the dress?” a third woman asked.

“Yes, I followed a pattern, but not being a seamstress, I felt like I was working my way through a complicated maze,” Sharon admitted. “But once I figured it out, it actually came together very quickly.”

“Mommy,” Adele said, “I have to go to the bathroom. Can you take off my princess dress?”

“Of course, sweetie,” Sharon said, “but first take a curtsy so that your subjects can exalt your presence, your royal highness.”

That was even a bit much for four year old Adele, who did an exaggerated eye roll while dutifully performing a curtsy for her Mom’s friends.

    One must always consider how easy, or not, it is to use the facilities in any given outfit… especially us women.
