Shoes





A little boy's shoes are an amazing thing. As he grows he leaves behind tattered, holey, adventure-ridden baby shoes. When he tries on the new, cleaner, bigger pair, he steps into his future and all the wonder and hope that lies within. Oh the places he will go, the bad guys he will defeat, the times he will travel to, the memories he will make. Each step is one that walks away from me, toward the man he will become. My heart will ache as I watch those heals do new, powerful things, and oh, the heights it will reach when they spin around and run back into my arms.
