Mia has become very interested in shoes. There is usually an extra pair of her shoes on her changing table, and she’ll insist on examining them while having her diaper changed. (We welcome any and all distractions that keep Mia lying still long enough for us to fasten those darned tape tabs.) Sarah reports that Mia sometimes goes into the kitchen, picks up her (Sarah’s) flip-flops, and delivers them to Sarah as if to suggest bare feet aren’t acceptable in our home. Mia really loves carrying her Dad’s big clod-hoppers around, one at a time of course. Her latest trick is trying to walk in Daddy’s shoes.
Fortunately for our wallets, Mia’s fascination with shoes does not extend to shopping for shoes. Every time we take her to Stride-Rite, she tries to run out of the store, leaving us to chase after her and the harried sales associate wondering if she should call, "Next!"
