Pokey toe

We call these his pokey toe sandals. For obvious reasons.


If I try to tuck that toe in, put them on him ever so gently ensuring it's safe and warm...boom. I get told off, 'cause that toe knows there's a whole world out there to see.
It's funny. When this first began that wee toe just peeped through but as he's grown it's become a statement. No one ever told me being a Mum could provide such hearty entertainment. 


Sadly, these sandals are here for one season only and they may have played to their last audience now that the weather is more consistently cool. (And yup, those are painted toe nails. Trimming nails becomes an activity if you paint them afterward and this Autumn child likes oranges 'like fire', many different tones of orange.) Bless.


Oh, how we love those pokey toe sandals.


ps. Happy Birthday Mr Peapot, Mr Poopaa.
