It's overcast today. Earlier, my mom was upset with me because I couldn't tie my shoelaces properly yet. It was indeed embarrassing. However, I quickly determined to learn it right away and remembered the four steps: 1. Begin by crossing one shoelace over the other and pulling it through the bottom to form a standard knot. 2. Create two loops by making a bunny ear shape with each lace. 3. Cross the loops over each other and tuck one under the other to form the basis of a bow. 4. Pull the loops out to the sides to tighten the bow.
