"Mommy, can I get light-up shoes? I really NEED light-up shoes!"
Without thinking, I told her sure. We could look for light-up shoes.
Three shoe stores later, we finally found some. The brightest, gaudiest shoes on the planet. And expensive! I had no idea light-up shoes had such a shocking price tag ($45 for little kid shoes?!?)
But I had promised. We had a little discussion about money and that these were very expensive. She thanked me with her sweet blue eyes aglow with happiness.
She was extremely excited to wear these to school today!
