big shoes

this weekend we traveled to the north, gasp! llbean was calling our name.

we walked around the beautiful store. mm was looking for boots, but no luck. more on his endless quest for the perfect boots later...

m picked out a pair of clogs. on display, they were SO cute. bright blue with flowers. then - when seen in her size - whoah! that's a whole LOT of blue...

i just kept thinking of pee-wee's big shoe dance... tequila!

she is so in love with the shoes, i don't have the heart to explain to her some shoes are a little "too much" in bigger sizes. mm has this problem a lot, the shoes look great, then they bring out the 13's for him and suddenly everything changes.

the clogs were on sale and i had some bonus dollars, so we got them. who am i to have a fashion opinion, anyway?

she wore them to school today, i still can't believe my original baby girl is getting so big! she's past the point of little girl shoes! what is going on here?

you know dads have a different take on their little girls. sorry kid, but you will always be a little girl. i still don't admit to myself that you are grown up. i can still hear you trying to get the last word in arguments w/ your mom. dad b.
