Summer Preparedness

She calls them her flops. And she's surprisingly skilled at walking in them (forward, not backward). And after this morning's pedicure session, Abby's all ready to meet some girlfriends at the pool and show off her summer shoes, and her cute blue toenails.

She noticed my toes as we were putting our shoes on this morning and pointed to them and said "Mommy blue!"

"Yep, those are mommy's blue toes," I replied. "Do you want to paint your toes?"

Squatting down to get closer, she took a minute to study her own bare toenails, then looked up at me and smiled. "Abby blue!" she said.

I took that as a yes.
