HAPPY FEET

I saw my five-year-old cousin the other day. He’s small for his age, and was wearing trainers similar to mine. I’m quite petite and my feet are nearly the same size as his, although I’m in my 20s. He looked down at his feet, at mine, then looked me up and down and asked, confused, “So, are you a kid then?” Janine, via email, May 20, 2013
