Summer reunions

So I had a little summer reunion with my small group girls earlier this week. Over sushi, we caught up on what’s going on in their lives, who’s been where on vacation, and the perils of tanning. I was touched that so many of them came. I honestly thought maybe two would show up, but we had a full table of seven.

Although concerned at the summer tops a few of the girls had on which showcased most of their chests, I was ecstatic and proud to hear one girl tell another her shirt was showing too much. I almost missed it, but I saw the girl adjusting her top with a sheepish look on her face and then say apologetically to me that she knew it was kind of (kind of?!) low-cut. I don’t think I even tried to hide my smile/glee at the fact that these girls were holding each other accountable. One of my less-attuned-to-reality girls said that she wasn’t worried about her low-cut top when it was pointed out by the other girls because “there was nothing to look at.” I quickly reminded her that just the suggestion of breasts was all a guy needed. (And we had examined this for an entire semester when we studied Insider last semester! Guess that didn’t really sink in as far as I’d hoped, at least with her.) Again, I got the sheepish look.

But all in all, I walked away encouraged. One, that my girls actually wanted to spend time with me outside of our Wednesday nights during the school year, and two, that some accountability and object lessons happened over dinner.

So, I have to know, what do YOU spend most of your time addressing with your girls? Take the poll below to let us know!
