Alegra thinks she has to wear her boots with EVERYTHING. Before she was
born I referred to her as my little diva, and she certainly lives up to
that nickname. It isn't a huge deal, but how do you handle clothing
issues? We've been working a lot with the word "compromise" lately, so
she's starting to get it, but she still thinks her boots are the only
thing she can wear.

2 of my 3 daughters went through the boot phase. I let them wear them as
much as they wanted. Even in the summer with shorts, there were those boots
It was never a big deal to me if the boots did not go with the clothes.
At one point, my youngest was wearing a tiara and her boots EVERYWHERE we
went. This was over xmas so all the pics from our many family gatherings
shows her in that tiara and the pink boots. I allow it because it's just not
a battle for me.
Also I homeschool, so I am not quite so worried about appearance in the
smaller children as others seem to be.

Marie I think most if not all of those who also answered to just go along with
the boots are not homeschoolers.
