Ah, unicorns. As a mom of all boys I don't get lots of opportunities to be in the world of unicorns.
Side tangent...we play Dungeons and Dragons as a family and I have the honor of being the Dungeon Master. (If you're unfamiliar with this, it means I'm the narrator of our adventure and I can throw weird stuff in when I feel like it). I was joking with my husband that I would enjoy this adventure more if there were unicorns. Alas, he showed me in the Monster Manual that there are in fact unicorns and if I choose to bring one in they'll be in our adventure. Score!
Anyway, at Christmas I put a handful of "Choose kind" t-shirts on my Amazon wish list. I love the book (and movie) Wonder and like the thought of reminding the world to be kind through my fashion choices.
My youngest son was looking over my shoulder as I chose and noticed a pink shirt with a rainbow-colored unicorn doing the dab. Oh my. It looked like something a 9-year-old would wear proudly. And somehow I got it for Christmas.
When I wear this t-shirt I feel like I'm dressing too young for my age and I feel a little silly. However, my son loves it when I wear it and even more than that, it reminds me to embrace the fun of life and not care what others think. There are so many rules in life that I feel like I have to follow. It's fun to just wear a silly shirt.
At the donut shop the cashier told me she loved my unicorn shirt. :) Me, too.
