Emily Stroh: Shoe Thief?

Every Friday, I bring Emily to a "Little Movers" group at the library. There are songs, stories, activities, bubbles, and toys. It is super fun for her and I! Last Friday, I had to work, so my mom brought Emily to the group. As a side-note, Emily has a fascination for shoes. She picks up my shoes and carries them around the house. I would say that it is the laces, but she also carries around my moccasins, which don't have laces. So I really am not sure what it is about shoes!! Anyways, when I got done with work, and asked how the group went, she told me a cute story. She said that both she and Emily had a great time and they even stuck around a while longer. As they were leaving and going down the stairs to get to the parking lot, a little boy from the group was walking down the stairs with his mom in front of Emily and my mom. The little boy turned around and saw Emily, and started crying. The mother turned and saw Emily, and said to my mom, "he's upset because your grand-daughter tried to steal my son's shoes." My mom apologized and went on her way. How funny is that!? Apparently I need to be careful from now on, because I have a shoe thief on my hands!!
