The Sweetness of being Me. . .a Lady

I found this lovely quote by Mrs. George de Horne Vaizey and have found it very encouraging, sweet, and true! I hope you enjoy it!

"It seems to be the fashion nowadays for a girl to behave as much like a man as possible. Well, I won't! I'll make the best of being a girl and be as nice a specimen as I can: sweet and modest, a dear, dainty thing with clothes smelling all sweet and violety, a soft voice, and pretty, womanly ways. Since I'm a girl, I prefer to be a real one."

Isn't that so encouraging?! Let's embrace the way God created us--to be sweet, modest, gentle, quiet, meek, feminine, charitable,  and good. Have a blessed day!
Your sister in Christ who enjoys being the girl God created her to be!
