These boots were bought for Sophie. She was going through her "Jesse the yodeling cowgirl" phase and she must have worn these things every day for I don't know how long and also two Halloweens. I love that I kept so much of her stuff. I don't know why I did. There is a ten year difference between Sophie and GG. We moved so many times and I still kept everything. Lugged it all along with me. I could have easily given up, sold it all, given it away. But I didn't.
There was always hope. Hope of a future with more children. For lots of things.
And I'm so glad that I didn't give up.

Amen!! I'm glad you didn't give up either :) What an incredible family you now have....cute boots and all!
How very sweet. I love that "...always hope"
I am so sentimental but I am not a pack rat. I have, however, kept a number of really special items of the kids. Daniel's mom gave us Daniel's cowboy boots from when he was little. It gives me untold joy to see them on my kid's feet. I hope that I can pass along a few memories like that to my (grown-up) kids.
I sure am glad you kept those boots too!
