Meredith, my date was actually shorter than me and I'm short. I was supposed to go to the prom with my high school sweetheart (first husband) but we had broken up. So I asked a boy who had graduated the year before. He was so excited that he even put lifts in his shoes, but I wore heels so I was taller.

I can't believe your girs still have your gowns. I wish I had mine. Not that it would fit.
