[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 625868, member: 13542"] Thanks IAD. My granddaughter found the dress below on line on a prom site but waited to long to order it, so a friend of mind who is a seamstress made the dress for her. My granddaughter and I bought the material, picked everything out....... it fit her perfectly and she looked just gorgeous in it. It was fun to watch it evolve with each fitting. It's a beautiful dress. We bought an egg shell color chiffon and she has dark hair like the model so she looked a lot like the picture. [ATTACH=full]175[/ATTACH] And, yes, renewal and new beginnings. And, Easter just passed too. I'd thought of that very thing as everything is in full bloom and life is regenerating. CA Mom, thanks for sharing your story of the retreat, I was thinking of something along those lines too........I'm wondering what it is that I would like to burn. Fire is cleansing and the act of doing something concrete and symbolic is powerful. It feels right to do that. Years ago when I had a fireplace, I wrote on a small piece of wood what I wanted to let go of, I did it with other women in a ritual sort of ceremony and then we were warmed by the fire the wood created. I think it's important to recognize these transitions we go through....... I've had a very lighthearted day. I want to feel that sense of a light heart more often. [/QUOTE]
