This picture makes it pretty clear I have NO IDEA what I am doing with my camera...or with photoshop for that matter....The subject is cute as could be but the photo itself is one that should be shoved into a back drawer. ;)
I was taking a picture of the little one in her favorite spot in her new shoes. My intention was to make the picture have that 70's look...it's what all the cool kids are doing these days...and it didn't come out. Oh well...I will figure it out in a few years.
I wanted to take a picture of my kid wearing her new shoes...when I put them on her today...it gave me flashbacks. And the some of the flashbacks weren't so happy! My child has my feet. And, it is a curse. She has no heel and they are narrow as toothpicks. Or "picknicks" as she calls them.
Go look in most of my friend's closets and you will be amazed with their shoe collections...come look in my closet and you will find 4 pairs of shoes. I'm not Carrie Bradshaw...I would never go into debt for a pair of Jimmy Choos. I stick to simple, black, plain, boring, get the job done footwear. Don't get me wrong, I have some HIGH black stilettos, but, they are black. They go with everything. Think I never developed that love of shoes because they never fit me. NEVER.
All throughout school...I had Keds....and whatever other shoe came in a "AAAA" Never got to wear jellies in 1st grade, Kappa's in the 4th grade, and my memory can't recall any of the other life or death fashion musts I missed out on. Clearly shows how important all of that is.....
My baby girl only has 3 pairs of shoes. 2 are exactly the same...different color and the other pair are her pool shoes. Simply because nothing fits....I was hoping she would inherit my thick beautiful hair...not my feet. Joking...again.
I can just imagine the shoe shopping trips with my baby girl. If they are anything like the ones I had with my Mom...she will remember them for the rest of her life....the good and the bad.
Praying for a foot widening growth spurt.
Too bad those ice cream sandwiches only widen the body parts that DON'T NEED widening.
