One Deep Breath - "Nurture"

"Hand-Me-Downs"

Baby - whose feet once
fit in my palm - now passes
his old shoes to me.

I begged for those when I was younger (70's). Delightful!

I'm with you on that. Emily has way passed me now. But, for some reason, I didn't get any hand me downs!

Cute photo!

Excellent image -- in the photo and the poem. Oh how do they get so darn big? Is it time we coin a new term for hand-me-ups?
