I Can Dress Myself

Mia has taken an interest in choosing what she wears each day. On a recent day, she picked out the lovely toile print dress at left. I suggested, "Honey, you're going to camp today. Don't you think you should wear shorts?"
She left the room and returned a few minutes later with a pair of khaki shorts, which she preceded to put on under the dress. Not what I had in mind, but what's the harm?
I then gave her the white ruffled socks. She again left the room and came back a few minutes later, socks pulled up to her knees. "Boots!" she announced with a grin. I had to agree they did look kind of like an odd sort of go-go boot.
After breakfast, I suggested she put on her shoes. I shouldn't have been surprised that she picked the hot pink crocs. This combo had to be saved on film. (No, she did not wear the crocs to camp. Fortunately, they don't allow crocs because they trap sand and bark on the playground, creating a nuisance for the teachers.)
