Ode to Sweatpants

Sweatpants, with your elastic band that doesn't squeeze too tight but doesn't let my pants fall when I walk, I love you.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to wear pants but not be in maternity pants that are just spanx on pants. No one likes spanx, NO ONE. Anyone who says they like spanx is a liar. But you already knew that, sweatpants, because you are wise.

Sweatpants, you let me move and bend freely. You let me pull you up to my boobs so my whole belly is covered and I can be a little risqué showing off some cankle.

My beloved sweatpants.

I leave you at the front door in the morning and rush inside after work to put you back on because you complete me. My light, my 100% cotton muse. This ones for you ✊🏻
