ODE TO PURPLE SHOES

We loved you in the rain,
We loved you in the snow,
We loved you in the sunshine,
Until you had to go.

Oh purple shoes so cute,
Lauren's favorite shoes of all,
We loved you oh so dearly,
'Til you were stolen at the mall.

Why in the world would someone steal a pair of shoes and what kind of mother do they have. I'm sorry about that - nice tribute, though!

Oh how sad for her! How in the world did you have a picture of them, by the way? Also, I LOVE your new kids' pic at the top of your blog---very sweet!

Sorry about the beloved purple shoes, but at least it wasn't favorite necklace, teddy or pink blanket.

that's awful. I guess if you steal children's shoes you REALLY need them...sort of like stealing a Bible - sort of.

Sorry about the shoes, but very cute thought but I had to say your new pix is precious of all three!

I have been out of the checking blogs loop for a while and just getting back! I am so glad that Caroline is safely here! So sorry about the epidural mess-up. She is beautiful!!! And I did notice the cutie pie on her dress with the big bow-head! Already a cutie pie girl!!! :) And I'm so sad the purple shoes got taken...that was traumatizing, I'm sure! Hope Caroline is sleeping well! You are in my prayers.
