One of Nora's first and favorite words is "shoes!" Pronounced with a special lilt and emphasis! Whether it is used as she looks for her own little pink Nikes, or carries her Daddy's heavy shoe around, it is obvious she loves shoes. This week I watched as she took her own shoes off and tried again and again to put on my sandals and walk. I laughed with her as she tried, but my thoughts about the scene lasted for a long time after our giggles. It is a great privilege and a great responsibility to think about her wearing my shoes or following my footsteps. It is serious business, being a grandmother.
