A mind of her own





My daughter Macie definitely has a mind of her own. Since she was a toddler, I let her dress herself. When she started kindergarten, I would drop her off at school and whisper to the teacher,"Macie dressed herself this morning and did her own hair". Macie would mix and match outfits, shorts with long sleeve shirts or lots of laying of the shirts. One time, she wore her pajama top (which was kind of like a short dress) and then layered it with other shirts. I think she had on like 3-4 shirts and it was a warm day. 
So, the other day, I found Macie dressed up in her cheerleading skirt, with a top that didn't match
knee high socks and her hair in pig tails. My Mom, was taking the kids to the park and this is how she went. I am glad she is very confident in herself. Then later that night, she got dressed up in her robe, backpack and she put makeup on herself. Under her robe was her recital dress. Macie is very creative. I am curious what she will be when she grows up.
I hope you enjoy the pictures.

Macie is too cute. She is so cute that it doesn't matter what she wears, it looks good. My favorite is the bathrobe with the recital dress underneath! I love all these pictures. How fun.

Oh I forgot to mention this...I remember the first time I met both of you. Macie was wearing a little summer outfit, probably shorts and a top, and with that she was wearing her dress church shoes. You had mentioned that she insisted on wearing those shoes. I remember thinking what a good mom you were to let her do this...that you cared more about her feelings than what others thought. I was impressed.
