i love being a girl*
stacie...the schmoopy girl, canon digital rebel xti
i was thinking today about how i love being a girl.
female, woman, feminine, girl.
i love it when my hair is up in a messy bun...and loose tendrils fall.
i love it when my ruffly free people skirt swirls when i do twirls up in my studio.
i love feeling free to be mushy squishy and snuggly with my girlfriends.
i love tossing my hair and giving you that sexy grin.
i love crawling into bed like a kitty cat and whispering in my husbands ear.
i love getting a glance in the mirror and not being afraid of my curves.
i love crying when i am happy.
crying when i am sad.
crying when i just feel like crying.
i love the smell of essential oils in my hair,
and the feeling of my skin when scented lotion is lathered all over.
i love that my closet is full of pinks, reds, embroidered, floral and flowy fabric.
i love feeling small wrapped up in my husbands arms.
i love playing dress up.
i love that i can be and feel all of this,
and also kick ass like a boy.

This post made me laugh out loud!! I LOVED every single word. You rock... we rock. I appreciate the emotional, mushy aspects of girlyhood too, no matter how roller-coastery they make our days... I wouldn't trade the wild emotions and crazy love we feel as women.
p.s. and I can kick ass too... learned from my 3 brothers!! :)
thanks for this post that just made me smile and giggle today.
Amen Sistah!
I love this post!! I totally connected with it! You are a beautiful soul!!

Yes, yes. Being a girl is very good. ;)

What a wonderful post! It made me smile, laugh out loud, dream, it felt soothing somehow too.
I was talking with a friend the other day how for years I felt I wasn't supposed to be a girly girl. Not that I acted or dressed as a boy, but it felt to me that being a girly girl, my true self or something, was a sign of weakness or something. (Typing these words is hard now, it is so not a weakness!) Anyway. I'm a total girly girl now. And I love it, it makes me feel good and strong and your words above made me want to connect to all those beautiful girls out there!!
