I was wondering where you got the skirt from, my daughter had exactly the same and really loved it but last week she ripped it while she was out.

Thanks

Cath, another great post. There were a lot of wonderful lessons learnt there. The post struck a particular chord with me though because we too have a rainbow skirt. I’ve experienced first hand the joy it can bring and my daughter is still squeezing into her size 4 skirt at age 6. I don’t think we’ll ever get rid of it.

At the moment it’s only my fashion lust as far as my toddlers clothes go ;o) I admire your restraint. I admit I probably wouldn’t have been able to hold out so long.

Thank you for sharing this story It’s a beautiful skirt and some very important lessons were learned on both sides

i have a girl among 3 boys and we have a beautiful skirt put aside for my daughters 7th birthday (end of february)… we have had this skirt put aside since before xmas and it’s pretty and frilly and everything that my daughter loves in clothing. She’s seen a pic of it and would love it but as tempted as i am to give it to her i have held on to it …. it’s been hard not to just give it to her but i want her to treasure the skirt and the memories that will go with it….

thank you again for sharing

that’s a great story! We never get to the same shop that often to do that!

We have that skirt too, I fell in love with it but it didn’t come in small sizes so I have bought a size 3 and will wait patiently for Immy to grow into it!

We have that skirt…. times 2!

My girls have been in love with since they saw a friend wearing it about two years ago. When I saw them in Myers (about the same time as you I think) I had to buy them as a special surprise. Totally impractical but so loved… and I always remember that the clothes I love the most are the ones I wear the most and therefore practical or not, value for money!

Thanks for that Cath. I’m sure there are now left now. Also a lesson I think Ella needs to learn. She certainly doesn’t understand that you can’t always have everything that you want straight away.

What a wonderful teaching/learning opportunity. My eldest was given the same skirt for her birthday, and it has now been passed on to my second daughter. They still disagree about who will wear it because it is just so pretty!

A beautiful skirt but more importantly some great lessons learnt. It makes me want to try harder to teach my girls when they covet a special item.
