This was something mommy struggled with the most. Just the thought of having to go shopping sent her into tears. Nene has gotten me every dress I've ever had. It was her special thing and how do you go to pick out anyone's clothes for Nene's funeral?? Mommy just couldn't even bear the thought. She wanted me to wear my pink cruise dress but she couldn't come up with a way to alter it to make it fit me. Then she had decided to have me wear my Christmas dress. It was the last dress Nene saw me wear. We still had to go shopping because we still needed some things for everyone else. We don't dress up much around here.
While we were shopping I decided at the last minute that I wanted to pick out a special dress. They only had one dress and it wasn't very special. I happened to see a shirt that I really liked. I thought it was perfect and I was really excited to get it. Even in the midst of all my sadness I just shined when I saw it. It looked like something Nene would wear, it was just her style! When I came home and tried it on Mommy said it looks just like Nene picked it out. I said "I know, it's my Nene shirt". So, I won't have the most gorgeous dress we could find for the funeral but I had something very special!
