In an effort to break myself of a bad habit, the children and I have been practicing taking our shoes upstairs as soon as we come in the house. (Most of you know, I do not wear outside shoes in the house. Because of that, all too often, 1000 pairs of shoes ends up piled up at the entry point of the door way. I have decided that my future husband, whomever he may be, while he will love and adore me, will have very little tolerance for the pile of shoes blocking his access into the house.)
With that noted, I am very proud of my little girl. She is nearly 5 years old and keeps her shoes neatly arranged in the closet.
On Wednesdays, I change the bed linen so I went into her closet to get a set of sheets. I looked down and saw sand in her shoes. She was obedient and placed the shoes in the closet as she was told.
I guess I will have to tell her to dump out the sand-outside- before taking her shoes in the house and putting them in the closet. Minor overlooked detail.
