Little Shoes, Big Sigh
Dimples got his first pair of shoes. He's almost walking now and since the weather will be turning in another month or two I want him used to wearing shoes before it gets cold. While I was putting his new shoes on him, it really hit me that this is it. I made the choice of only having two, and I still don't regret that, but I have to admit it makes me a little sad that my kids are growing up so fast on me and then that will be it. This is the last time I will be buying first shoes. Sigh.
Oh, the bittersweet moments that are parenting. You know what I'd like to see? A row of kid's shoes from first pair to graduation. Or marriage. That would be quite the row . . .
