Emily over at Chatting at the Sky is hosting Tuesdays Unwrapped.I have decided to participate with this post.It is my first time doing something like this.
I hope I link it right.
My two year old can’t keep her shoes on.
Right there in the middle of our evening church service, she yanked them off and tore her socks off faster than I could blink.
I almost got angry about it and then realized the tiny toes would not be tiny that much longer.
So instead of being irritated, I yanked the camera out and snapped a shot.
It isn’t very artsy but it stands for so much.
It is a moment in time saved in digital form so it is not forgotten.
I am currently living in a tropical place.
My kids only wear shoes when they are outside the house.
They are a lot like their Mama, I dislike wearing shoes.

i keep meaning to take a photo like this ! too cute!
This is great! A perfect representation of what it means to unwrap the day. Rather than throw away that moment in anger, you chose to receive it as a gift. Thank you for linking up!
Now about that link. Will you re-link to Mister Linky? You did it ALMOST right 🙂 Instead of simply typing in your blog address, click on the title of your post on your blog and it will give you the permalink for this post in the address line of your broswer. Cut and paste THAT address into the Mister Linky. For example, for this post it will be:
http://hikingtowardhome.blogspot.com/2009/04/tuesdays-unwrapped-toddler-toes.html
I will delete the first link so go ahead and re-link up!
Awww, how cute is that! That is really sweet! Thank you so much for sharing.

I LUV toddler toes…except my toddler has funky squashed over toes like his Papa! I KNOW. SO weird. However, I still love em because I’m his Mama 🙂
Blessings!
Good for you, those toes will only be little for such a short while. Believe me, I know! Wish I had more photos of “little toes”. Mine are all adults now. Of course the grandkids have tiny toes, too. Get those photos!!
very cute toes! glad you took the time to capture them ;0)
Not so long ago those little toes(even smaller) lay quietly for hours while we caught up on the deck at Pirates Cove…..I can't wait til we can do it again only this time I know it won't be so quietly…….Praise the Lord. And speaking of little feet, what size does Mr. Shark Shoes wear now? ><> ><> ><> ><>
Oh my gosh, I LOVE the chunky little piggies!!!! They are absolutely beautiful…
xoxxooxo
Ah yes. This reminds me of what my little sis did when she discovered her children happily playing outside IN THE MUD. Don’t get mad…get the camera! And THAT is one cute little foot, if I ever saw one!
p.s. Thanks for visiting my site…and I think your job description is PERFECT as is. Developing four little photos! So sweet!
