My Daughter’s Quinceanera
When my daughter turned 15, we threw her a Quinceanera party to celebrate her womanhood. At first, she didn’t want to have one at all. Her friends were teasing her that it was her “coming out†party. But after a while, and especially after getting a Quinceanera dress, she completely changed her mind. Quinceanera dresses are like prom dresses, but they have great cultural significance. Perhaps they are more like simplified wedding dresses. Anyway, what 15 year old girl wouldn’t want to dress like a princess and be pampered for a day? All of my daughter’s friends went home telling their parents that they wanted a Quinceanera too. I even sent them home with copies of the article, “Planning a Flawless Quinceanera.†The article taught me a few of the Quinceanera basics, and I figured it would do the same for the other mothers.
