I've found a bravery within you...

So today my family wanted to go to the local pool and go swimming before we have our big thanksgiving dinner tomorrow...Great idea I love swimming but of course I didn't pack my swimsuit. So I ran over to wal-mart and bought a cheap $5 bikini. Now I wear bikini's all the time but I hate my thighs and I have a few stretch marks, now I like my body in general and have no problem wear short-shorts and such but only around my Hubby....So whenever we go swimming I have always worn surf shorts over my bikini bottoms makes me feel a whole lot more comfortable. But of course I didn't pack those either...so I had to wear a bikini to the pool! Big step for me, hubby tried to get me to do this once before and I told him that I was too nervous...Well by filling my head with all his supportive thoughts of me being sexy, gorgeous, etc. I found the bravery to wear a bikini!!

WOW it felt so liberating I felt sexy and attractive and no one seemed to notice my few stretch marks...I guess even with him gone he gives me a sense of bravery and confidence that only he can provide. Now I will never wear those surf shorts over my bikini again.

Now all I have left to do is cook my first Thanksgiving dinner solo, and make it thru tomorrow without crying! Wish me luck
