Joey's Toes

Exhibit A, shown above, is a photo of Joey's toes.

Consider now Exhibit B, an outline of Joey's foot compared to an average-sized foot. The blue line sits at the base of both Joey's and the stranger's big toe for better height comparison. (I stole this pic from the Internet. NOTE: If you ever want to make yourself sick, Google images for "toes").

If you've seen Joey's feet (and toes) in person you don't need this illustration to know that she has very short toes and small feet.

There are undoubtedly a few positives to Joey's toe/foot size:

1. When she puts on flip-flops, they just stick on her feet in between those toes of hers. It requires no toe muscle coordination to keep her flip-flops on.

2. She can buy girls' shoes, which are much cheaper than women's sizes. You may have seen some cute child-sized shoes in this blog that she recently purchased.

3. She saves a lot of money on toenail polish. Refer to Exhibit A for toenail size.

Although I think Joey's foot size is not without challenges:

1. She has in fact been mistaken for a little person before.

2. Toe rings are out of the question.

3. There is a slight hoof effect when she wears certain types of shoes.

That's all I've got.
