New Shoes

Larry and I went to Ross last Friday. While we were there looking around Larry saw some shoes he liked for me. Three pairs of beautiful shoes I might add. One pair was Steve Madden...cooper brown high heels with a little ruffle up the front, a pair of black strappy high heels and the third was a pair of silver peep toed heels. Since Gracie joined the clan I put away all my heels because I was afraid I might slip and fall carrying her around. Now she's almost 20 pounds and she is like a little weight that keeps me grounded. LOL Anyways, the point of my story is this: Alliah just about passed out when she saw my shoes. She LOVED them. This was our conversation:

Alliah: "Oh my gosh, Mawwwm!!! Where did you get these shoes? I love them!"
Me: "Daddy got them for me today at Ross."
Alliah: "Oh wow! I never even THOUGHT you'd get shoes like these!! Mawwwwm!!"
Me: "What?! Why not? Why wouldn't I wear shoes like these"
And with that question she carefully laid the shoes back in their boxes and headed up the stairs saying, "Because they are so, they are so fashion!"

Okay.....now what am I supposed to do with that information? Am I not fashionable? And more important, why do I care that my seven year old thinks I'm not fashionable?! I mean really, sometimes she can make me feel like I'm a frumpy old mother! She would love for me to dress in heels everyday, wear make-up 24/7 and always wear my big silver hoop earrings. I'll tell ya this: We're gonna have our hands full with this little girly.
