put your shoes on will you

These words feature heavily during my weekday mornings. Alongside other relentlessly repeated instructions that form my daily mantra.

This is me behaving myself and putting my shoes on, at the very moment they need to be put on. We are going out and shoes are needed. Simple.

Orlando decided to photograph the moment. Maybe he observed that it is something of a curiosity for someone to just, quite simply, put their shoes on.

Maybe it's because he has a thing about shoes. Maybe it's because he likes being in control of the blessed iphone/camera.

Either way, I love the photo.

One shoe on and the other waiting patiently by its side.
