When mom came home from work today, she said she had a present for me from Grandma. But first things first, I had to go outside and take care of some urgent business. then we came back in and mom showed me my box. I love boxes! Really, I do. I can play with them for hours. But mom said this one had something in it. 
So she opened it and I took a peek inside.
Then I went in for a closer inspection.
Then mom laid out all four socks and all four shoes for me to look at.
Then she put them on me, and for the most part, I didn't mind. And after that, we went outside and I gave them a quick trot around the building. I think I must have looked a little silly, mom giggled some and the neighbors kind of looked at me longer than usual. But I like them.
Mom says tomorrow maybe I can wear them again and we'll go hiking. I can't wait!
