I'm her mom, so I'm in your generation!<br /><br />Rosie, is there a good reason why it has to be a veil and can't be a hat? And does it really glorify God to do that? Not criticizing anybody who wears a veil. I'm just trying to understand it. Who knows, maybe I'll wear one someday—and freak out everybody in my Diocese of Richmond parish! Hmmmm.

It so much harder now, because you feel like you're going to stick out like a sore thumb.<br /><br />On that Veils by Lily home page, there is a link to an essay called "Why Veil?" It gives such a beautiful explanation--I wish I'd quoted from it.<br /><br />Good luck! I promise you, it may be hard at first, but you'll get used to it.Laura Pearlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16108081477711821273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7932448625116124069.post-33487854727332585152013-02-17T11:25:02.989-05:002013-02-17T11:25:02.989-05:00Okay, you've inspired me.

How many ridiculous prideful excuses do I need to make? Thank you for this - I'm ordering one now :)Rosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12888635342531960478noreply@blogger.com
