Shiny Shoes

These shiny shoes are a picture of childhood.  The bruises and marks on the chins are too, as well as the nick on the toe of the shoe and the pushed down socks, it all makes me smile.  My daughter won't let me take pictures of her face, but she doesn't seem to mind me shooting her feet...go figure.  I don't mind, these little shoes are just as sweet a reminder to me...this moment is fleeting and I want to embrace all of it, even the shiny shoes!
