Today being Sunday, I should probably be writing a spiritual post. Because, today really was one of those days that the Spirit did touch me. However, as I am trying to write this post, Spencer is sitting at the kitchen table coloring and singing a song whose tune is not recognizable, it some kind of loud, gruffy voice. Taneal is washing dishes and being pretty loud. Camie is in on the piano. Gavin keeps bringing me toy pizza and play cups of water to sample. Danielle is trying to build something with blocks and is repeatedly knocking them over making way too much noise. Nathan is at the table with Spencer giggling And Evan? Crashed on the middle of the living room floor sleeping a midst all the noise. I don't know how he does that.
Chaos is in my home. With 7 people all contributing to the noise, okay 8. Evan is snoring. It makes it a little hard to write something spiritual. Yah, and there goes a shrill scream because Spencer colored on Nathan's picture. Gavin is now riding his push car and talking on his fake iPhone Taneal is singing and Danielle is now playing with the Lightening McQueen shake and go car. It is just loud.
As much as I would like to share those quiet , tender moments, shoes will have to do today.
One of my swim coaches had these kind of cool shoes that could get wet yet had a little style. Not a lot of style. I asked her about them and she told me where she got them. I checked them out and decided to get me a pair. They are so stinkin' comfortable! I wear them all the time.
I like shoes, but I'm not a big shoe kind of girl. Once I find a pair of shoes that I like, I wear that pair until they fall apart or until the season changes and it warrants a different kind of shoe. And then I stick to one pair of shoe again. And I don't like closed shoes. I need my feet open, unrestrained. Fortunately for where I live, I only need warmer shoes for maybe a month out of the whole year. Except Sunday. I like different shoes for church. But during the week, I need a quick, slip on pair of shoes that can be worn with pretty much everything. I think if I had more time, I would probably like to have more of a variety of shoes. But that time is not right now and I haven't made it a priority.
Today, I am thankful for my shoes. They are so much better than my flip flops that were my favorites that didn't offer any support of any kind. And although these aren't the cutest shoes, they are versatile and comfy.
