Shoes, in my house, seem to just disappear. Why is that? Why do the shoe fairies only take little shoes and not the big grown up ones? What do they have against high heels and large flip flops? Why are they only drawn to dirty little Hello Kitty shoes? What’s the deal? I’m still trying to figure that out.
Saturday my little one had on red flip flops. All day they stayed with her. Come Sunday afternoon when it was time to actually go somewhere, the red flip flops were gone. No, that’s not entirely true, she only found the flip but not the flop. One was missing. So she had a right red flip flop and a left turquoise flip flop, but not a complete pair. I threw a pair of old sandals on her & we headed out the door. Getting to our first store I notice the soles of her shoes are talking, so that means I had to buy her ANOTHER new pair of shoes. Its understandable, kids need new shoes and I didn’t mind buying them but I JUST bought her a pair of new shoes TWO WEEKS AGO and those damn shoe fairies have struck again because the new shoes are missing too.
I think I need to start letting the dog sleep outside of her crate from now on, so she can catch the shoe fairies who keep stealing her shoes while we all sleep.

Bwahahaha! Around here we have mitten fairies. And I’ll be damned if I’ve been able to catch them yet.

That is weird. I couldn’t ever find my shoes when I was a kid either but now they are always where I left them.
I’m with sue however, I have about 6 gloves but no sets. I guess for now on I will only buy the same brand and color so I will always have a pair.

Yeah, but Carrie, you’ll always have all the lefts or all the rights. That is the evil plan of the mitten/glove fairies. LOL
