Modesty: The Forgotten Virtue

It’s been a long time..I know!  However, I have been busy, both in family things and in research and work.  Please forgive me for neglecting my writing! 

I’ve done a lot of thinking and praying lately and I have found myself revisiting the headcovering issue.  I’m not sure that I am called to do so, yet, but God keeps pulling me back to it..perhaps because of the references to obedience and respect.  Hmmm…maybe I’m a slow learner! 

I am now a full time dress wearing Catholic…boy do I get some looks sometimes! 

My daughter is 12 now..and is still very much a child…we don’t allow a lot of the influences that seem to make the other girls her age act about 18..so those have not been problems.  She is making the transition to dresses a little more slowly.  Most of the time she is wearing them, but we have made compromises on skorts (homemade ones).  I found some nice denim shorts that were longer and put knee length skirts over them.  She likes them when riding her bike and playing with her brother. 

For now, that’s good.  She is still very much a little girl at heart without all the teenage “angst” that the other girls her age have, so I’m not worried..she’ll make it there!

I’ll try to keep the blog updated on a more regular basis now, but for now, I must go!  Peace and Love!  :-)
