Neighborhood Niqabi

  So I did a thing and I started wearing a niqab, but how did I get here. COVID! 2020:  When Covid first rolled around  my husband suggested getting niqabs for myself and our now 2 daughters to wear instead of masks.  I fought back as that should be a personal decision and while wearing a mask is still covering it's not the same and a niqab I felt would be something personal and permeant if we started wearing them.  So we got regular masks.    2021: October '21 I take my daughter shopping for a dress for her choir outing.  I start eyeing a niqab and eventually decide to try one on.  I take a picture to see how I look.  I decide to buy it, but still seem on the fence. At this time it's just an idea/thought/feeling I have.  So I start wearing it at home to see how I feel with it on and eating with it on. I start wearing my mask before I leave the house instead of just when I go into the store to see how I feel with something permanent...
