A cry for help from by the front door. Smudgelet is supposed to be putting his shoes on - a simple enough task for a six year old but he sounds to be in distress. Mummy goes rushing to the rescue.
His shoe has velcroed itself to the front door mat!
As he bends forward to pull it off, he inadvertantly lifts his leg behind him, so the mat is always just beyond his reach... a bit like a dog chasing its tail. He lowers his leg to bring the mat nearer and in doing so finds himself standing upright again. The mat just will not be retrieved.
I did help him.... eventually
