In October, I found a pair that
I never wanted to take off.
A perfect fit,
A perfect love,
I wanted to show them off to everyone.
And just when these shoes were beginning to
break in,
it was time for a new pair.
A stiff pair of stilettos.
Take a deep breath,
Walk slow,
Be steady not to trip.
And balance.
Balance this new life of motherhood,
teacherhood,
and wifehood.
I'm walking slower and missing that old pair so much,
but slowly, surely,
finding my feet again.
