Whose feet?

When we get to school in the mornings, I generally have to take Ian downstairs to a different classroom because they wait for enough kids to arrive before going to their separate classrooms. So we went downstairs and he ran in and gave Pat a hug right away. His little buddy Thomas was also hugging Pat, so the two of them had her trapped in a corner. So cute. Thomas turned two over the summer and is basically Ian's shadow. When Ian arrives, he comes running with a big grin and gives Ian a hug. He then stands about 2 inches away from Ian and follows him around and does whatever Ian does. They are so cute. It's so strange because when Ian started, he was the littlest and now he's the biggest!

Anyway, Pat asked if I had gone into their classroom yet because she put up a new display. It's pictures of all of the kids feet with the title "Who's Who's" (I know, it doesn't make grammatical sense, but you get the idea). They were doing footprint painting last week and, as usual, Ian did not want to put any paint on his feet and refused to take off his socks. So Pat said, "If you go up and look at the pictures, you can tell which one is Ian -- it's the only pair of feet with socks on!" Sure enough, there are all these little bare feet and one pair with socks on. (Eventually, he did give in and let Pat take his socks off and put paint on his feet.)
