Bootie Break

Drudgerius interruptus at the grocery store today as my eye caught a shelf of colorful kiddy's galoshes.

Man, boots like this make me wish I was a little kid again. Or my feet were a lot smaller...

On this first Day of March. As the encroaching warmer weather brings the rain that makes the puddles remember to take a moment and splash around a bit. Or a lot. But don't jump too high or too deep.

You might get a soaker.

  1. The first pair of rubber boots I bought Jean Philippe were yellow with the Batman logo on them. He put them on in the store, and he wore them around the house all day - even though there wasn't a hint of rain - and he went to bed with them still on his feet.

    There are some fights that are just not worth getting into. I'm so glad I didn't insist that he take them off because it makes me smile every single time I think about Jean Philippe, sprawled across the sheets, with his two little feet sticking in those Batman boots.

    1. Kids are great like that. And the things they sleep wearing or under their pillow are great memories (as long as you don't remind them of them when they're grown up!)

    2. Are you kidding? These are Caissie Classics, to be repeated with relish every chance we get!

    3. Ah, you must have the MacIvor/Belyea gene in there somewhere! LOL.
