Magic, It was always Magic

Ok, so seeing as how my son has the extra toe & all, buying shoes is a monster pain in my ass. Thank the sweet heavens that Payless carries the wide shoes for toddlers that don't cost an arm & leg (NO THANKS STRIDE RITE WITH YOUR 50.00 SHOES THAT HE WILL GROW OUT OF IN 2 MONTHS) So anyway, the other day me & the family were out shopping for sandals for him to wear to a friends birthday party for her son. Now to put it kindly, she lives in a crazy nice house & a ritzy ass neighborhood with fancy pants friends so I had to get shoes so my son didn't look super white trashy. Keep in mind he's only 1 so shoes aren't a big deal at our house. Now, after going to 4 different stores that didn't have jack diddle squat, we went to Penny's. So I ask the little sales girl if they carried sandals in a wide size, she told me that the normal ones were pretty wide & would probably work, at this point I had to whip out the extra toe & explain why regular shoes don't work. So then dead serious she looks at me and says...... Wait for it..................
"How did that happen?" REALLY? Are you serious? What a stupid question. So I was so proud of myself because I didn't miss a beat as I looked at her and said "Magic" I prayed to Jesus every night to give my child another toe. I seriously laughed so hard. Now we have been asked when we are going to cut it off, or do we have extra toes ( for the record, No we are not going to cut it off. It doesn't hurt him at all and looks like a normal toe & 2. No neither one of us have any extra digits) but I have to say this question made me laugh so stinking hard. We spent the rest of the trip making up new answers, We sprung for the upgrade, We glued it on, He's part dolphin, It's a dew claw, etc... Man people crack me up


OH and when we got to the party it was a damn swimming party so no one had any dang shoes on anyway!!!!!!

Smooches!
