Shoe Shopping with a 13 Year-old

I went shopping with Grace yesterday. We were shopping for high heels. Her first pair. She's 13 and ready. Shopping for these shoes was quite an adventure.We actually started last Saturday and came home with nothing because everywhere we went, the price tag was to steep for her. Yes. She was buying her own shoes. Yes. She is cheap. The Apple does not fall far from the tree. You could say I was glowing with pride.

Last week we spent two hours looking for black heels. Yesterday we walked away with a pair of nude heels. A true lady! I'm sure soon we will be on a hunt for a pair of black ones, again. I will go willingly because it was fun. Me and my girl shopping and knee deep in girl talk. Apparently I'm drawn to shoes that a grandma would wear...I'm so not! And Grace believes in destiny like like I do. She was destined to buy the last penguin mood ring at the store. She loves penguins and it was the very last one! It was meant for her. I was glad to witness it.

On the way home we stopped for a few groceries and some General Tso's chicken and a cherry coke. Quite yummy! A good time indeed. I have an amazing daughter! And today she rocked those heels with a super cute dress!
