Nifty Thrifty - Shoes

Bare feet are best, but soft, thin-soled shoes are the next best thing for our feet and our entire skeletal system.  It is really hard to find good and affordable shoes that are also good for little feet.  

Owen recently grew into a pair of brand new Minnetonka moccasin boots that I found at Goodwill when he was two.  The price was still on them:  $2.97.   

He was thrilled when they came out with the seasonal change of clothes from the attic and they finally fit.  They are his first pair of tie-up shoes since he was a little one.  He did have a pair of these same shoes about six sizes smaller when he was about two.  He has gotten quite a bit of practice tying them himself over the last week or so, and my fashion-conscious young man is really proud of his "real Indian moccasins."
