Wow!!! Something I did as a kid is truly coming home to roost. I positively drove my mom nuts with my socks. Now I am reliving the frustration my mom must have felt. Now my mom's frustration stemmed from my instance that socks were just as good as slippers if not better. I still feel that way as an adult. I mean why invest in slippers when the socks work just as well. I frustrated my mom to he point that she would threaten to buy me an old fashion washboard to scrub the bottoms of my socks. Now Meghan brings a new twist to the sock issue. The first is that she always seems to misplacing the socks and matched pairs never make to the washer together. Once she hets in a pair, it is nearly impossible to get her out of them. As a mom, that is what my frustration with socks is. I went to the mart store - the one with the W and spent aprroximately $20 making sure the child had socks to wear and choose from. This would have worked great if she had put them away when I handed them to her; however, this is not what happened which meant we all had to go look for them. The good news is we found the bag which she left on my bed instead of putting away. Sock issues is obviously a genetic issue since Alan and I also have our share of sock issues. But not the way Meghan does. So I suggest that all of you invest in the stocks of sock companies because will purchase enough socks to support an underdeveloped country.
Matched pairs are way oveer rated!!!!!
