I have some jackets here and I take them out in socks, if need be. I texted all my parents sunday reminding them we would be outside every day this week. My first arrival didn't have shoes on at arrival. I asked if shoes were in car, she said, only his church shoes, I said, that will work for today but make sure he has tennis shoes for tomorrow.
She reluctantly handed me the brown leather stride rites.
Last arrival today (11 mo), I greeted him excitedly, said, are we going outside and play today?! He smiled at me as I took him from dad, dad says, youre taking them
Out?
Yes. Everyday this week. I told you. It's beautiful out. We will be out as much as possible. Until
It's too hot, then again when it gets cool.
Dad walked out thinking the door had closed muttering, he's only a baby, he doesn't need to go out.
So I peeked out the door and said,
Yes, but there are nine others. He will have fun I am sure.
"But he doesn't have shoes"
"Are you going to drop them off?"
"No"
"Then I'm sure he'll be fine in socks."

Every spring. Same drill.
