Dear Diary,
I am delighted that my mom and her sister have reconciled. Today my Mom and her sister, took us dress shopping for our aunt's (father's side) daughter's wedding. We invited mom to rent a dress with us, but she declined, saying she didn't feel up to it.It was so nice to see my Mom and her sister getting along again after their recent falling out. The tension between them has finally eased, and I'm so relieved.
I tried on two dresses, and my family says both looked good on me, but I felt self-conscious when I looked in the mirror. All I could see were my big hips. Yes, I have a nice face, but my body and face felt like they belonged to two different people. I didn't feel pretty anymore.
But let me tell you about the last dress
It was an incredible gown—a silver beige cape dress adorned with delicate beads and crystals. At first, I was kind of annoyed when my aunt showed up with it. She came in while I was trying on the other dresses and I didn’t like that she saw me like that because I’m really shy about my body and uncomfortable with the camera shops. I felt guilty for being annoyed, though, because she’s one of the sweetest people I know
The dress was breathtaking, and we were all mesmerized. Unfortunately, it was too small for me, and I was afraid to try and fit into it because I didn’t want to tear it. So we called my sister over to give it a go. And oh my goodness, she looked like a princess! Elegant, regal and absolutely stunning.
We all agreed the dress was perfect on her. But then she surprised us by saying it was too fancy and she didn't want to upstage the bride. I couldn't help but disagree.In my opinion, if the dress isn't white, there's no need to worry about stealing the spotlight. But my sister insisted, and neither of us ended up renting anything.
Oh well, I'm sure we'll find something else. I'm just grateful my Mom and her sister are back on good terms. This family drama has gone on long enough!
Sincerely,
