What I Wore Wednesday, 10.27.10

A number of my blogger friends have recently started linking up to a meme called "What I Wore Wednesday", showcasing their outfits from the week. At first, I was a bit hesitant to join in, because nobody really wants to see what I wear most days. But after talking with these godly women about it this weekend, I've decided to give it a shot, with a twist.

A Few Guidelines/Disclaimers:

• This is not about what I'm wearing. It's about the fact that I care enough about my husband and my children to get dressed for them and look presentable. It's about setting a tone of productivity for myself and my household. {See Get Along Home's post on Pajama Homeschooling? for a better explanation of this.}
• Though I may mention certain pieces by name, this is not going to be about the clothes and accessories I am or am not wearing. If I do mention a piece, it's most likely to bring attention to an incredibly talented person who has crafted it or the kind person who gifted me with it.
• I want my focus not to be on the clothes I wear on the outside, but on the character qualities I'm putting on inside.

Since I just decided to participate yesterday morning, I only have one partial outfit to show you - thanks to my 3.5yo daughter (Jenny) for taking this photo of me:

 

Brooch: Kelly Joy Boutique

Necklace: The Vintage Pearl

Cardigan: my little sister (gotta love hand-me-downs)
Character Quality: Patience
