The older my girls get, the less control I have over what they wear. On one hand it is helpful to have them dress themselves in the morning (if you consider 10:30 morning!) but on the other hand the outfits they choose to wear aren't always up to par. And they have become very sensitive to the way clothes feel. 3/4 sleeves feel weird, jeans are to stiff, cuffed sleeves too tight, etc. If it was up to them they would wear knit shorts and t-shirts every single day. I try not to make this a battle and let them express themselves when we are staying home for the day (which happens a lot these days). Lucky for me, uniforms are a comin'.
