Shoes

There was a girl in my kindergarten class who got to wear black patent leather Sunday shoes to school. She had blonde hair, and always had a bow in it. I was insanely jealous of all of these things!!!

I remember one day, I snuck my Sunday shoes into my backpack with the intention of changing into my pretty shoes at school. I have no idea what kind of school shoes I had to wear, but they definitely were NOT as cool as Sunday shoes. SOMEhow, my mom found out. :) I'm sure it was not difficult, really. And I not only didn't get to wear my Sunday shoes, I got into trouble.

M has has sparkly pink tennis shoes for school.
I make her wear them everyday.
I want her to run and play and have fun-not worry about scuffing her church shoes.

Yet, she has the same desire I once had. She wants to wear her pretty shoes to school. Thank heavens for boot day last month and the "fancy feast" this month!!


She got her wish, even suckering me into letting her wear her new Christmas dress to school for the feast! She was escorted by her darling classmate, N, and they had a lovely lunch (at 8:30am!) and fancy feast!

Adorable. I'm glad she got her wish.
I love Mrs. Strom and her blog too.
