We past by the patten leather shoes I wanted to buy for her and went\u00a06 isles\u00a0up to her actual size, (which is frighteningly close to the isle with my size). I searched the rows over and over again, looking for an older version of the perfect Sunday shoe.\u00a0 When I couldn&#8217;t find them, I looked through the flats, not wasting time on the flip flops, because of the talk given by <a href=\"http:\/\/classic.lds.org\/ldsorg\/v\/index.jsp?hideNav=1&amp;locale=0&amp;sourceId=0c996169b62fe010VgnVCM100000176f620a____&amp;vgnextoid=f318118dd536c010VgnVCM1000004d82620aRCRD\">Elder Jeffrey R. Holland.<\/a> (Remembering that we are not going to the beach we are going to church) And of course I was ruling out out all of the heels because my mother wouldn&#8217;t let me wear heals until I was 16, and there are certain 10 cow wives who would certainly judge me for letting her&#8230;but all I could find was the most hideous pair of flats and I couldn&#8217;t bear to even offer them to her. So I moved on to a small, heel with a pointed toe and a cute little button. Even though they\u00a0still looked older than I was comfortable with her wearing. Then my compassionate daughter smiled and said, &#8220;Well, if you are willing to buy me those, than you are going to love these.&#8221; She went to the sale isle and pulled off a pair of beautiful, classy, black patten leather shoes with a cute little bow on the open toe. They\u00a0are three inch heels. My name is Bianca and I let my 13 year old daughter wear 3 inch heels. And I couldn&#8217;t be more pleased. She has always been the great negotiator. And despite the looks we get when someone gets a glimpse of them poking out of her floor length, maxi dress, and the fact that my Mother in-law has already passed judgement, they remind me of her first pair of Sunday shoes only higher and with a bow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From This My daughter and I went shopping, a couple of days ago, for a new pair of Sunday shoes.
