Proud Mama

I am so proud of Emily today. There is a little girl at her preschool that needed some shoes and for whatever personal reasons, the mother was not bringing her any and the baby was not allowed to go outside and play. So, Emily and I went through her shoes that she has outgrown night and picked out some in the little girls size. At first Emily wasn't happy about the thought of giving her Elmo tennis shoes away, but once we tried to cram her foot in them and she realized that they didn't fit, she agreed to put them in the bag for "Chelsea". This morning when we got to preschool, she marched proudly up to Chelsea with the bag of shoes and said "Here. These fit you. I get new ones". Maybe I'm doing o.k. as a mother after all...
