My personal motto? Glitter. Is. Good.
What makes some people "glitter people" and some people "glitter haters?" What is it about glitter that just makes me smile? Maybe it is the shine and maybe it is the sparkle. Either way I just know that I am drawn to glitter like a moth to a flame.
Anyone who knows me well knows that I have a not-so-secret passion for glitter. I truly think that glitter makes almost anything look better. Shoes, purses, cards, makeup, lotion, barrettes, and the list goes on. In fact, my day is not complete without interfacing with something sparkly. My glasses have rhinestones, my makeup bag is made of copper colored glittery fabric, and I never leave the house without earrings that sparkle. All of my eye shadow has glitter in it, and I love sparkly lip gloss too. Even Laney has loads of sparkle shoes and loves to add bling to her own outfits. In fact, it is hard for me to find items in and around my home that couldn't be improved with glitter, with one exception: Liam. He does not do glitter and neither does his stuff. This is the only thing that I find disappointing about having a son.
I thank God often for glitter. It adds a beauty to everything and makes me feel like I sparkle inside and out. Glitter is an inexpensive way to make an occasion more festive and special, and this house will never run out of ways to shine. So passionate am I about my love for the little metallic flakes that I requested that if something should happen to Patrick and I, my sister and mom make sure that Laney grows up to be a sparkle and glitter lover too. Oh, and they should also make sure she studies and goes to a good college too.Have you had your glitter today? Maybe it is time to inject a little sparkle and glam into your life too.
