My daughter got into her dream school, and today was Admitted Students Day.
This morning as she was getting ready, she asked me about her outfit choice. I told her it was fine but asked if she really wanted to wear a skirt.
Me: We’ll be doing a lot of walking. You might be uncomfortable.
Her: Skirts are way more comfortable for walking than pants.
Me: Oh, that’s right. I forgot your thighs don’t rub together.
The best part was that the VERY IDEA was so foreign to her that she asked a lot of follow up questions, which meant I had to explain chafing and ways to prevent it to her.
I think she also understood then why I was wearing leggings under my dress.
As for the leggings, I got a lot of compliments on them (they’re cute!) but my daughter said that because of the cut of my dress, I looked like I had skipped leg day at the gym.
