I am constantly telling my 7 year old to find his shoes and asking WHY they are not in the cubby where they belong! 2 days after we bought him a new pair of shoes because his one pair of regular shoes was lost (it was getting too cold for flip flops) I found his shoes in the bottom bathroom drawer. I was so mad.
