Everyone has their own quirks that make them unique. Some quirks are in people's personalities, while others are more physical. My physical quirk is that I have toes that have more skin between them, or as some of my friends like to call it, webbed toes.
When I was really young, I thought everyone's feet looked like this. But then I remember looking at my sister's feet one day and realizing that mine were different from hers. I was so confused. Then when I pointed it out to my friends, they were all so amazed. I kept asking people about their feet, and it turns out my mom also has the same thing. No wonder why I have it!
Over the years I have met a few other people who also have toes like mine, and it always makes me feel so happy to know that there are other people with feet like mine.
Just a couple weeks ago I found out the medical term for this condition, it's known as syndactyly, meaning toes together. I had figured that there was a term for it, but I just didn't know.
Although I love my feet, there are some things that I can't use because of it. For example, I can't wear toe socks, those socks that are like gloves for your feet. The space between my toes is not deep enough for each toe to go into the toe slot. Another thing I cannot use is the toe separator people use to paint their toenails. Again, the space between my toes is just not deep enough for it to fit.
Even though I can't use these few things, it's okay. My feet are awesome, and I think they're actually kind of cute. We should love every part of ourselves, and that includes our feet!
