During winter season, I am forced to put my sandals and flippies away. In exchange, I elect to wear boots most days in an effort to keep my toes toasty. Upon entering Etta’s sight, one of her first statements always is, “I thought I heard the clink of your boots coming down the hall…now let me see the heels on those boots today!” This is always followed by, “It wasn’t long ago when I was wearing heels WAAAAY tall. Taller than you can even find anymore.” This is a conversation we have literally every day. But, a few days ago, Etta added some new insight. With excitement, she offered, “You know what would be REALLY cute? If you wore those boots that go WAAAY on up your leg with a pair of shorts in the summer…now wouldn’t that be cute?!!? You should try that when it gets warmer!” As though considering her suggestion, I responded, “I haven’t tried that look before, but it sounds rather foxy. I will make sure to give it a try.” [SMILE]
