(Thanks to Cindy for this great story posted in our ATW forum yesterday...)
My mother passed away over 11 years ago - so its a little late to let her know what I finally understand but...
I remember as a teenager helping her fold laundry and as I folded my bikini panties, and little lacy bra's - I asked her how she could wear those granny underwear and playtex cross your heart bra's - she told me I'd understand when I was her age. Its been years since that conversation took place between us, but I always remembered it in the back of my mind, each time I went shopping for those oh so personal items.
Well, I'm the age she was then (45) and today I understand...Comfort. No digging straps, no crawling undies, no pinching, poking, pressure or bouncing out above or below. Yes, I took the plunge into the ladies high waist undies, and a playtex cross your heart - and I have to say - its been an 18 hour day and I feel better than I have in years.
So Mom, If you can hear me - I finally understand!
