What Cute Shoes You Have, My Dear

By Moriah on July 27th, 2007

Imagine, if you would, a young mother type who found herself with a whole week of free mornings (let’s say due to a local church teaching VBS). She would do what any other sensible mother-of-three would do and GO SHOPPING. EVERY SINGLE DAY.

And, NOT FOR FOOD, either.

Nicky, you are in France at the wrong time, honey. Everything marked down at ATL is an additional 40% off (which is, like, half the store). So. Even though I was there, um, YESTERDAY, of course I had to go back, TODAY. Because it’s TODAY and THE KIDS ARE AT VBS. That’s why.

And, though this might be a little embarrassing, I will add a little something else. The other night Andy and I went to Target. Love Target. Anyway, he bought me a cute pair of shoes. I will even add a picture, well, because they’re cute. And it helps explain some things.

Cute as they are, I made a terrible mistake in wearing said shoes to the mall this morning. Oh, they fit great at Target. Walking a parking lot is another story altogether. They were just too big and the backs kept flopping off my heel. Not to mention how TALL they made me, so I sort of had to bend over to push the baby’s stroller.

Oh yes. I was the ridiculous lady bent over her stroller with her too-big flapping shoes trying to walk slower to retain some semblance of poise. (And failing miserably.) I tried not to wonder what some poor husband banished to the bench outside ATL thought of me and my darling shoes. I know he secretly wanted to bust out laughing and mock me for my fashion nonsense.

Anyway. At least I have cute shoes.

    “Fashion before function” as I always say! And your bending down to push the stroller…I can only imagine you looking like a Barbie doll…you know…how their legs don’t REALLY bend?!?!
