It’s hard to sleep with hand-me-down toddler size 6 pleather cowboy boots on, but when your twenty-seven pound toddler insists on wearing them with his pajamas, there’s no taking them off. We are continually aware of how big of a deal it is to “own” something when you never have. Our five year old says “it’s mine forever and ever?” about everything from a sticker, to a pink plastic dentist prize to a pair of tennis shoes. It’s humbling to think about how much we middle class suburbanites take for granted.
