Music To A Shoe Lover's Ears

Last night at Trader Joe's, as I was pulling a cart out:

Gabi, suddenly frantic: Mommy, I don't WANT to sit in the cart!!

Mom: It's okay, honey! Remember that mommy said it would be okay for you to walk in the store, as long as you stayed right by me?

Gabi: Yes! Because I have on beautiful new Dora tennis shoes! And my feet just want to walk and walk and walk in them because they are so beautiful.
