Why Don't They Speak Up

OK, no one would say I'm soft spoken or one to hold my tongue. I'm a little on the boisterous side. So why aren't my kids. OK, that's not fair. Arion speaks his mind (some times more than I want) and Brandon is at an unfair advantage. It's Lauren that's the problem. Yesterday Lauren said her shoes were tight. So, as a good Mom I take her shopping this evening for shoes. Then I get a good look at the shoes she's wearing. Not the outside, I've seen that. The inside. HOLY CRAP. A little tight. That's an understatement. She was wearing a 3 and now she wears a 5. That's right, my baby girl, my little nooky, at the age of 7 is wearing a 5. Take a look at the picture. These were her shoes. Take a look at the one on the right. That would be her longer foot. The one is a full size bigger than the other. Take a look at the heel. My poor baby.
