Throwback Thursday: Senior Prom

Dear Em,
It's prom season. Somewhere there are girls getting excited about wearing the perfect dress, & guys worried about having to dance all night. You haven't even been to a dance yet, but I think about what your prom might be like someday.

My prom was so, so fun. A big group of us gathered at my house for pictures before heading to the event. I went with a friend rather than a boyfriend, which left me free to just enjoy the night dancing with all of my friends.


I haven't kept in touch with my senior prom date...or really any of my prom dates. But there is something that has remained the same since that senior prom: one of my best friends.


She just got engaged to be married, & now instead of dreaming about our prom dresses, we're dreaming about her wedding dress. I can't wait to be there for her big, magical day. So much has changed, & yet so much has stayed the same.

I love you so,
Mommy
