Shopping

Last night I made a decision. It's been almost 12 months and I haven't bought any new clothes. I know I was prego and then "getting over being prego!"
But now I hate to admit despite my best efforts my old clothes don't quite fit...YET!
But I'm ok. I have decided to get some "transitional" clothes ie: Fat Clothes to tide me over . Yes I'm doing bootcamp and yes I'm working on it. But it's a slow process. Oh Ruby! I will thank you for this body years from now.
This afternoon I got invited to a prayer meeting and they said they'd love to pray for Ruby's healing. I thought I should cancel my shopping plans with my friend Dana to drive to Orange County just to get Ruby prayer. Now we were at a prayer meeting last night for Ruby and come to think of it about a million other prayer meetings. The kid had Heidi Baker herself pray for her healing and she had her own personal prayer session at PIHOP. Pasadena House of Prayer.
But I struggled with what to do. I think I was getting legalistic convincing myself I was a bad mom if I didn't get Ruby in the car to yet ANOTHER prayer meeting. This daughter and I have been all over the state of CA to prayer meetings and she's been amazingly happy at every one.I've taken her to conferences and the words spoken over her have been awesome. Perfect strangers come up to me saying the same things" I see her on a stage singing for the Lord. "
So I decided to have a night for mommy! I went to TJMaxx with Dana after I cooked dinner for everyone. I came home and I feel good. I feel like I deserve a night to treat myself. I did give birth afterall! That's gotta be worth some sparkly clothes!
