I think I am in the Running for Worst Mother of the Year

In addition to having lost my son's shoe twice - once at the park (where I let him play barefoot in the wet grass) and once on the way home from the pediatrician (where I unknowingly carried him home barefoot in cold weather), I showed up to buy him new shoes with ....

A barefoot.  Understandably (perhaps), he was missing a shoe - hence, we were there to buy new shoes.  But it was a little embarrassing when the sales lady informed us that Will was missing his sock and was barefoot (again).

Is it any wonder that people think I am some poor foreigner using my two baby boys to panhandle in their nice country?

(We never found the sock.  I should note that my children rarely have socks on.  They seem to go missing. In fairness, I often don't have on socks either for the same reason.   I need to buy them more socks.)
