OK, SO I have three cursed dresses!!! I bought my girls matching dresses. May I begin by saying, I may never do this again! It has been a joke since day one. The first attempt at wearing the dress was given to Baby H. She promptly threw-up sweet potato souffle all over it five minutes before leaving for church. GL who is truly great salvaged the dress w/no stains. GL hung it on a hook in our main bathroom. This however did not prove to be the best choice. Midweek we are in a hurry to get out the door, so I tell Miss M. to please eat her raviolli's as quickly as she can. For once she chose to be exactly obediant. She ate fast and promptly threw up her dinner very close to the toilet, but not close enough! The dress my husband had hung to dry in that bathroom now sat right in front of the toilet and recieved a raviolli shower.I managed to salvage the dress the second time. The next Sunday rolls around and I think how fun. I will put them in their matching dresses. I got them all dolled up and next thing I know Lightning comes running down the hallway. Mom come see what Miss M. has done. Mind you she has been instructed just like every other Sunday to sit at the kitchen table and read books until we leave. Not this week! She found a packet of Arbys sauce and you guessed it. It was all over her dress!! I lost it, to say the least. My week was crazy and trying and I was at the end of my fraying rope. I sat on my couch and cried the "ugly" cry. I said, I could not possibly attend church. I had lost the spirit. I sent all my kids to their rooms, knowing they would all be safer in their rooms, and let loose... I sobbed and complained about every injustice ever sent my way. All my rationale had left me . My GL even questioned my sanity . He had never seen me this bad before. Well I knew I had responsibilities in young womens so I pulled it together and since Cissy's dress was untouched, I put her back in it and headed to church. The third dress met w/ disaster in nursery. It came home w/marker all over it. Cursed I am telling you cursed. Today was cousin Ky's baptism. I thought well It is cleaned and pressed so Baby H. will try the dress again. She never left the house in it because well... can you say BLOW OUT?!! I am telling you they are cursed and I have gone from crying to laughing. What other choice do I have?

Throw away, burn or bury the dresses, as fast as possible.
I would have been crying too.
Bless you and those precious children.
Oh I am crying from laughing so hard! I have to say that I am glad that we only have 2 girls to try to match dresses in!!! That is one of the craziest stories I have ever heard!!!
I am wondering what I will do when I have more than one running around! Lyza has had days like that... I just want to pull my hair out! I think you deserved that breakdown!
I agree with magic fingers....burn those dresses they will only cause you more pain! Keep the children however.
I'm sorry to admit that I did laugh during the story. Classic mamma story.
love this story! i truly believe some outfits are cursed! and i am impressed you wanted them to all match! I love the matching!
That is so funny. I'm with ZB - burn those suckers! Wait, on second thought don't. They may cause your whole entire yard to catch on fire if you do. Pass them on to someone you don't like.
Blaine had a shirt that whenever he'd wear in high school, he'd get in trouble for something or someone would want to fight him.
