Stayin' Smart

Years back when Michael worked for Galyan's (back when Galyan's was Galyan's and not Dick's), he became quite hooked on a certain brand of socks - SmartWools. These socks are not the most economical, but they are very comfy, wear well and depending on the particular style, can keep your toes nice and toasty on a cold, winter day. Michael thought so highly of these socks that he did not hesitate in sharing his joy with many of our family and friends. He converted many a sock-wearer to SmartWools. In fact, he even bought a pair for T for his first Christmas. Back then, they did not make infant SmartWools (as they now do), so Michael bought the smallest pair he could find. At the time the gift was given, the socks looked incredibly huge. I figured they would fit T when he was about 5. Well, either T has incredibly large feet (which is entirely possible) OR I was drastically incorrect in my prediction, like by a good 2 1/2 years, because when I pulled out that gigantic pair of socks from T's bin of "To Grow Into" clothes, I was amazingly surprised to find out that......THEY FIT!!!!And for the record, T seemed to enjoy his fancy pants socks.
