Late this afternoon, Madeline and I were out in the Zooper. We'd walked to the Co-op to pick up a few groceries for this evening's dinner. I was secretly hoping that she'd nod off on the hour-long adventure because she'd been a little nap-resistor. Anyway, as we were strolling up the road on our way home, I caught a glimpse over the top of the stroller of Madeline's feet. There was one foot happily kicking away in a butterfly-appliqued Roobez shoe on the left, and five little pink toes on the right! I cannot understand how she got that shoe off her right foot! I turned the Zooper around and saw the missing shoe lying on the sidewalk about half a block away. Then I noticed that a police car had stopped on the road roughly even with the shoe, and a police officer got out of his car, retrieved the shoe, and jogged up the road to meet me with the shoe! I don't know if I was more amused or embarrassed :)

"Home" is just another stamp in my passport.
What an adorable story! Sounds like a good one to tell her in the future, to entertain her boyfriends. :)
In regards to the cereal, yes Benjamin does eat the raspberry yogourt cereal. I have to say, it's MY favorite. Quite yummy!
