The Constant Search for Winter Clothes

The crazy thing about kids is that you feed them and continue to grow. Because of this, they constantly need new clothes, a constant source of consternation for parents, not only because of the financial aspect, but because it requires searching for the necessary items. You can never relax and just hope things will fall into place, because they never do without a little sweat on the part of mom and dad.

As anyone up here will tell you, this is especially true in New England, which requires stuff for every season. With Winter on the horizon, we have to think about snow gear. A got some new ski gloves at the Henderson’s sale, but they didn’t have N’s size, so we’ll have to keep looking for that. N also needs a light Fall/Winter coat. He has a heavy coat, but something when the weather turns brisk. I think A is all set in this department.

They both need shoes. I think the slip on mocs work great. Besides, they’ll wear shoes for about two to three months, then it’s time for snow boots. Speaking of which, they might need new snow boots, but we’ll have to investigate that further.

There sure is a lot to think about. Until the next time, thanks for reading, and thanks to Irum Shahid for the pic.
