Today we got M's new shoes.
No problems. She didn't complain one time. Well, she mentioned that the shoes were a little tight. But she'll get used to that.
She did develop a little blister, but surprisingly, it's on her straight foot, not the club foot. I put a band-aid on the miniscule blister and after a little whining, she was fine. When I was changing her into her pj's, she took the band-aid off right away and was fine after that.
This afternoon, I got a call from "We Fix Feet." (Okay, I made that name up, but I meant the prosthetic company that provided M's shoes).
The message went something like this, "Mrs. Benson, this is Sonya from We Fix Feet. Girl! I should have looked at your check before you left today. You way overpaid us. Give me a call ASAP."
WHAT?!?!
When I was leaving the facility, Sonya was on the phone. She wrote the amount I owed on a sticky note and gave it to me. I filled out my check, handed it to her, and left (well, after she put her call on hold and gave M some stickers for being such a good patient!).
So I called right back.
Our conversation went like this:
Me: Sonya, this is Natalie. What do you mean I overpaid you?
Sonya: GIRL! Your check was way more than you owed.
Me: What? How did that happen?
Sonya: Girl, I don't know. You wrote your check for $183.12, but the shoes were only (ONLY!!!) $83.12.
Me: Laughing. Are you kidding me?? I misread your note. Okay, tear that check up and I'll have H bring you another one tomorrow.
Sonya: This is your lucky day, I guess!
I breathed a huge sigh of relief.
The shoes were affordable.
M adjusted well.
God sure is good. He provides. If only I'd be still and let Him.
Sorry the photo is sideways. I thought I fixed if in PSE--but my computer is acting up. Isn't that shoe just adorable? The other one is just as cute. M loves jumping in her new shoes because the "clump" around.

I am SO glad that it went well and you and M both like her new shoes and feel at peace! They are adorable. And while $83 is still dang expenssive, at least i'ts not $183 - too funny you overpaid!
