Are shoes really that bad?

Emery threw an impressive 30 minute temper tantrum in the driveway this week.........because we made her wear shoes. Such cruel parents! There is at least one meltdown a day around here having something to do with wearing clothes.

Don't be fooled. She may look like she's sleeping, but she was still mid-tantrum.

I kind of like the idea of outside temper tantrums......nothing gets thrown across the room and broken, food isn't flung against the walls, and there is plenty of room for flopping around as necessary. :-)
