Maritha

Saturday I was finally able to go shopping with Maritha. It was quite an experience. We first went to Walmart where we picked up some tights, a couple of long sleeved t-shirts and a winter coat. Maritha was quite hesitant and shy about looking and picking out something.
OK, there really wasn't much to choose from anyway. A quick stop at Arby's and off we went to Kmart.
The girl learns quick. She marched right in to the girl's department and started looking at the dresses, pants, and shirts like a seasoned shopper. We found a couple of dresses, some cute jeans, warm snugglies and some snow boots.
When we got home she had to pull everything out of the bags and hold them up for everyone to see. She sure looked happy. I think we did just fine without a common language. Mostly I would sign. She watched my response about sizes and really tried to find the right tags. She picked mostly Pink. I pointed out purple and blue, she went back to pink. Guess she is a girly girl under all those boys cloths she has been wearing.
