I'm bummin
Ok so I had many a difficult conversation with mom to persuade her not to wear a navy blue dress (that she had made and wore to my brothers wedding 5 years ago) because a) my bridesmaids are wearing navy and I prefer that she NOT match them. and b) I think it would be nice for her to wear something new so she doesn't look exactly the same as she did before.
So I convince her of this and while I was in Mexico, my awesome sisters took mom, who isn't terribly healthy or mobile to a very expensive plus sized dress shop in Cedarhurst. She picked a beautiful chocolate brown dress with Austrian crystals and was prepared to pay through the nose to have it made to fit her properly. Well when she called the shop to approve the fabric swatch she got in the mail, she was told that the company who makes the dress is no longer cutting it and she will have to get something else.
I am so upset for her because she had been so excited and it was a lot of work for my sisters to help her (and me out). I know she will find something else but she is dealing with so much right now, she didn't need this on top of that.
