I have special feet and these are my new special boots. And they're awesome!

Special needs boots

It took the shoemaker over 6 months to make them, but they're perfect. Someone's gonna be hiking everywhere soon ๐Ÿ™‚

Yes, I know, they're just shoes. But they're something special to me. Today is a good day!

Momma always says there's an awful lot you could tell about a person by their shoes. Where they're going. Where they've been. I've worn lots of shoes. I bet if I think about it real hard I could remember my first pair of shoes. Momma said they'd take me anywhere. She said they was my magic shoes.
