A Fitting

First step toward the magical moment of GRADUATION . . . fitting of Junior-Senior/Prom dress.




A gift of a dress.





Couldn't find one long enough for 5'11" Oldest Daughter in all of town.






Gave up on going to the party.  

Expected instead to sit at home and watch dejectedly 
as the pics were uploaded onto Facebook.





Suddenly, surprised by finding another shop . . . finding a dress . . . long enough for these long legs.






A sweet gift from God, letting her know He's with her in every detail

As she moves through . . .

Each step.

  3. What a beautiful dress and what a breathtaking young lady in it! I handled my eldest attending prom with aplomb. But sewing on the collar to her graduation gown then ironing it... how I managed through my teary eyes I'll never know.
