You know you’re a Mom when…

Your latest fashion find is not Prada. Rather, it’s the last pair of waterproof boots of the season, in a toddler boy’s size 12, for $9.99.

And, the entire time you’re driving home, all you can think about is how much his face will light up when you put his cozy little piggies inside of those new, warm, dry, boots.

Of course, that smile didn’t come until after the requisite “fit” that they weren’t right, before I had him convinced that they were indeed Batman Boots.

Like all of you, I am overwhelmed and am currently working on a plan to eliminate all need for sleep so that I will have enough hours in the day. I'll let you know as soon as I have all the kinks worked out. I treasure your comments and emails. I do read them all.

    That second shot is gorgeous. Such joy and excitement captured there. I think I have a very similar pair of boots from when I lived in the snow! They are sooooooo warm!!

    I browsed your blog a bit today…I read your ‘If I had known it was her last birthday’ post and just had to say I understand. Motherless daughters unite.
