John got new shoes yesterday. They're those really "cool" kind that light up and they have Spider-man on them. What's not to love? Steve and I allowed John to wear them to bed last night because he was so excited about them. However, we told him that it was the only time he could wear his shoes to bed. He agreed.
Fast forward to tonight. John is still enamored with his shoes. He asked to wear them to bed again. I refused. John threw an absolute fit complete with tears, stomping (accompanied by the flashing lights from the shoes), and screaming. I told John I had an idea. He couldn't wear his shoes to bed, but he could bring them into bed with him. John begrudgingly agreed, but made one thing clear:
"I hate this compromise!"
My kid may be wearing light up shoes, but he's got a heck of a vocabulary. :)
