Mom, I can’t find…

I must hear this phrase a hundred times during the day. It bugs me most when the next word is shoes! There is one place for shoes, just put them away and all would be well. Apparently that is way too difficult. So today as we are trying to hurry out the door to go swimming at Marci and Kenny’s pool I hear Ammon yell, “Mom, I can’t find my other sandal.” So me, being the patient mom that I am yell back, “Well I guess you can stay home with Dad.” That sure made him hurry! It wasn’t until he was buckled in the car I noticed his shoes.

Both left shoes! It cracked me up that he even put one sock on! Oh well, at least he didn’t have to stay home!
