Comfortable in my skin 🐅 . . . Storytime When I was about 11 years old I woke up one day with hundreds of stretch marks on my body (mainly on my legs) and this made me extremely insecure of my skin. I would wear leggings under my skirts in the summer to hide my legs and carry my towel all the way to the pool so my body would remain covered until I got in the water 😫. As years went on their appearance got better but, I never accepted them. However, at 21 after giving birth and getting a whole lot more stretch marks; I noticed the skin had before was nothing compared to the changes I have now and I then appreciated what I had. This realization made me appreciate the present more than ever and learn to love what I do have. Moral of the story .. Embrace the things you can’t fix. In addition .. if you ever need self love boosting go to a water park lol; we’re all imperfectly perfect ❤️ Braids by - @ithamarslaysshair
