thoughts of spring

It’s most definitely not spring.

I’m not so naive to think that just because the thermometer reads 60, that spring has sprung.

This is New England, for goodness sakes.

But I can’t keep my mind from wandering towards the warmer days ahead.


And I got an email with a shoe store coupon.

When I came across these, I made the fatal mistake of calling one child in to have a look.

Soon all five littles were gathered around my computer chair, laughing uproariously with every new little animal shoe that came up on the screen.


Waterproof, washable and under $20?

Available in pink and purple?

And make you laugh just to look at them?

We’re expecting four pair of these to arrive on our doorstep on March 11th.

    Ha ha! That's precious. And as I was reading our post, my two walked in, laughed at the shoes and then asked for some. Off to follow the link to see what we can find!

    OH MY … those are too cute! For fear we cannot find those in Hong Kong, I will not be calling Sam or Lucy to view them on the computer! :o)
    Love & Blessings,

    Oh the Polliwalks are much beloved in our house!! We got the last ones at 6pm.com for five bucks each, thanks to a speedy blog commenter. I nearly swooned!! If you want, I'll let you know if they offer them again.
