Missing significant others.....



My daughter has been loosing her shoes at an alarming rate. I now have 3 shoes that are missing their "other". I briefly thought about throwing them away but I could not and I don't know why.

Children's shoes are not cheap! I was confused because I had to keep buying the same shoes again and again. Causually over the phone my mother told me I lost shoes too. I guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

What can I do with 3 odd paired shoes? Take pictures of course! I paid a lot of money to buy these shoes so at least they can be my artistic subjects, right? I want someday to show the photo to my daughter and tell her the story of the lost shoes. I hope the photo means as much to her someday as it does to me.

Missing shoes reminds me of missing socks. I don't like doing laundry and cleaning up the house but when I fold my daughter's small clothes and tidy up her tiny shoes, I smile.

My daughter is napping now. Time to do laundry and clean up the house!

  1. LOL! I have the same problem with little MissT! And when I do find the "other" it's always in the craziest place!
    She had gotten better since I make her put her shoes on the "spinning" shoe rack now. :)

  2. Georgia,
    I am glad to hear that I am not the only one to have this problem....Usually she looses them at the grocery store, parks, or zoo. Whenever she rides shopping cart or stroller, she kicks them off and I did not realize about it and loose them.....I have been hoping to find the other, but have not had any luck...

    So, I empathize your feeling, well.
