Current mood: amused
Mia is growing so fast that she is constantly out growing her clothes and shoes. We only have 1 pair that still fit her. Luckily summer is on its way so shes been in sandals lately.
Well, last week, while I was packing for our trip to Oxnard, Mia found her shoes and took off with them. That kid made them vanish into thin air because no matter where I looked I couldn't find them again!!! We ended up just leaving without them and taking her sandals.
Well today was a bit chilly and we were going to Orange County for her friend Koa's 2nd birthday at the park. I REALLY didn't want her in sandals and I cringed at the thought of letting her wear socks with her sandals since I knew the socks would get so dirty and messed up. So I searched high and low for those missing shoes!!!
I am not kidding when I say that I tore the downstairs APART looking for them! I was getting frustrated because I knew they HAD to be there but couldn't find them. I had Adrian AND Mia both help me look. I refused to give up. Soon I dumped out all her toy boxes on the floor, they weren't there either. I tore apart the couches and took off the cushions.. not there. I checked EVERYWHERE!, upstairs, downstairs, her room, the bathrooms, the spare room, the living room, the family room, the car, the trunk, the kitchen... EVERYWHERE and they didn't turn up. I was about to tear my hair out and it was getting late.
So finally I just threw in the towel and gave up. She would have to wear her sandals with socks... ugh! Just then, for some unknown reason I felt the urge to check the semi-empty-not-working computer tower next to the desk. Adrian has been swapping parts out of that tower for awhile so it has some missing space on the back. I leaned over and peeked inside muttering, "Mia if your shoes are in this case your getting a pow pow!" sure enough at the very bottom, next to the mother board lay her two white shoes! "Mia!!!" I just had to laugh, of course I didn't give her a spanking but I wouldn't let her near the shoes again!!!
