This month I'm participating in the A to Z blogging challenge and posting every day in April (except Sundays) with the corresponding letter of the day. The theme I chose for this year is 26 Days of Gratitude. I'll be posting about people, places, things, and events in my life I'm grateful for. Today is the letter...

Can I just tell you how thankful I am that there is something called make-up in this world. Do I use it everyday? No. But I'm glad it's there when I do need it.
Funny thing happened recently. It was one of "those days". My hair was pulled back in a ponytail and I had chosen not to bother with make-up. I took my son to piano and his piano teacher looked at me and said, "Today's a no make-up day?" I was so surprised that I made some half-witted response like, "Huh?" To which he said, "I can tell you're not wearing make-up. You look SO different. I mean, really different."
Whoa.
There are some women who don't leave the house without it. There are a few in my family like that. But not me. Clearly not me.
All you women out there, do you wear make-up on a daily basis? Have you ever had someone comment on your lack of make-up?
