So, yesterday I took my 3-year-old to buy new shoes. She was incredible (and why not….girls learn about the wonder of new shoes very early on in life). Until she saw the gaudy, pink-flowered light-up shoes that i was NOT buying under any circumstances. But, I talked her out of buying them and we opted for 2 pairs of more tasteful shoes.

After we were done, she said, “Mommy, I can’t wait to show Daddy my brand new shoes!”
I said, “Well, first we have to go food shopping and then we can go home.”
and she proceeded to say, “Food shopping? What the hell?”

no joke. these were her words.
oy vey.
