Abby's Glitter Shoes

Oh, the glitter shoes!!

I can't get away from the glitter shoes.

Come rain, running, playing, sand, grocery store, school, sleet or snow, Abby wants to wear her glitter shoes.

I got the glitter shoes with a huge sense of impending guilt that I had just bought them and they would certainly not be used. Now I'm wishing that I was not getting quite as much of my money's worth out of them.

She voluntarily put on a pair of her normal shoes today for church and I shamelessly told her to "Abby, go get me that water bottle across the room" while I ran for the glitter shoes and hid them under a pillow lest she notice them and have a change of heart.

(That sweater, by the way is my favorite sweater Jen G knitted Abby which Abby insists does not need to be tied - as it's a crossed sort of thing it looks completely odd untied - I tied it this particular morning by distracting her and I almost slapped Steve when he called attention to it by complimenting her on how nice she looked. She picked this outfit by the way, in case you hadn't figured that out)
