I bought Kid 5 a pair of Hello Kitty rain boots. She saw them and fell instantly in love. This is a kid who would rather be barefoot than wear shoes, so I was hesitant at first to buy the boots, but her toothy smile won me over.
She loves those boots. She wears them everywhere. She said she really loves her boots because "I don't even have to wear socks." I can't believe that would be comfortable, and imagine her sweaty little feet in them, but hey, it makes her happy. I told her they were not hiking boots, but what do I know?
This morning I walked out to get the mail and announced that I was going to do so. Kid 5 yelled for me to wait. I sighed impatiently, wondering if this was going to turn into a longer excursion than I had anticipated. Kid 5 then ran towards the front door, wearing what else? Her boots.
I look at her and shook my head. I didn't say a word, but Kid 5's response to my head shake was, "What? I'm de-ddicted to my boots! I just love them!" Where she got the word "addicted" I have no idea!
