When we first got back from Hawaii, I noticed that the big, huge shoe box full of the kids shoes in the basement was half dumped out and shoes were everywhere. I figured maybe grandma or the kids were looking for sizes? Anyways, the next day I read a paper that Tallie had brought home from school earlier that week about donating shoes to kids who didn't have any. The deadline had come and gone and I felt bad that I didn't know earlier so that we could actually donate some...we have quite a few that could go. Well Tallie informed me that she did in fact donate shoes.  Which explains the shoes everywhere in the basement. I asked her if Grandma helped her sort through them and she said no. She looked through the shoes on her own and took them to school. She told me about the pairs she gave (they happened to be really cute ones that were almost to fit Chloe). I was so proud of her! So happy that she thought of others and did what she had to do. What a good example to me.
