My mother is simply the most amazing woman on earth for many reasons - but among them, is that she truly listens. Months ago my sister and I mentioned in passing that we were drooling over the new sparkly Uggs at the mall. We love Uggs - they get us through the brutal weather in Iowa over the winter months. As most of you know, we also coach a dance team together (for the school district that I teach in) and the school colors are Blue & Grey (but I like to say Blue & Silver - I mean, who doesn't need a little sparkle, right?!). Every Friday at work, we have casual Friday and I just NEEDED these new Uggs to be my every Friday shoes.
Knowing that Christmas was months away and our birthdays are just quickly after Christmas, we both put our hopes aside and forgot about our new beloved boots. One hot August day, my mom gave each of us a big package wrapped with birthday paper. "Happy Birthday - a little early" she said to us. We exchanged confused looks and then raced to open the package and beat the other like we were 3-years-old.
My friends, please behold the lovely addition to my Friday attire:
L.O.V.E.
My feet are warm and comfy. And there is enough sparkle to go around on this Friday.
Happy Weekend!
