Shoes

So, I have this weird habit (actually, many weird habits, but this is the one that I'm sharing with you now) ... I take pictures of the kids' shoes. Now that they're at the age where shoes get worn out before they are grown out, they are usually immediately destined for the trash. But I always take a snapshot first.



The kids have a small selection of shoes at any given time: one pair of crocs, one pair of sneakers and Dora gets a bonus pair of Mary-Jane style sneakers to wear with dresses. So their shoes usually get worn to the ground before we get new pairs.



And after a year of everyday wear, their shoes have so much personality, that I hate throwing them away. So I take a picture.



I've been doing this since Dora was about three years old, these are a few of the pics that I happened to still have on my hard drive.



Today was new sneaker day for Dora and Clark.



So, I had to take a picture.
