at long last.

Posted on July 7, 2020 by beth

at last, at long last

after many days of waiting

with no pending arrival date

once called ‘non-essential’

my glitter shoes have arrived

balance is restored.

Beth, you sparkle naturally all by yourself but these are still the perfect shoes for you. Enjoy and I look forward to seeing and hearing about all the adventures they’re going to walk you into.
Better be good though as you’ll be easy to spot 😊❤️
