Rant of the Bear Tootsies

So, it's -2 outside and as I scurry to the grocery store, I see a mom with her two babes in a buggy. Child #1 is a toddler who can talk. Mom asks her if she's warm enough and the girl says yes. Child #2 is a baby just sitting up age . . . and . . . only has thin socks on his feet! Oh, but good thing he has mitts on.

I have never understood this. When my babies were small, they wore socks and booties or shoes AND then a blanket around their little legs when out in the cold. I wouldn't leave my feet hanging out in winter weather with nothing on them.

And the other day I saw a baby with BEAR toes.

That must have been so strange and scary for you! I wonder if they are some sort of hybrid of half bear/half human. Scary!
