Tiny zapatos

I walked into Nana's for lunch. The first thing I noticed was Animalia, sitting in her high chair, happy as a clam. The second thing I noticed was her zapatos. Her toes were hanging over the front of these tiny white sandals. "I think those shoes are too small for her," I told Nana.
"I KNOW those shoes are too small," replied Nana, "but she found them and insisted on wearing them. She calls them her Tiny Zapatos. It was really funny when we took her to the May Day thing at the park and she danced around in them."
"You took her outside looking like that?!" I asked, appalled.
"She insisted," said Nana.
"Mama, look Aya's tiny zapatos," Animalia said happily.

A few days later she would find a tank top that no longer fits and insist on wearing her "tiny shirt."
