He was an expert in making different types of shoes. He spent all day from sunrise to sunset and even hours after sunset at his workshop. He crafted many beautiful and durable shoes for people.

One day, when he was at home his wife announced she was pregnant. Mike was very happy to welcome a new baby home. Also, she felt that the baby could be boy.

As the delivery day arrived, Mike closed his workshop and stayed with his wife.

His wife delivered a beautiful daughter. Although Mike was a bit disappointed that he cannot let the child wear the shoes, he was extremely happy because he had a feeling, may be later his wife will give birth to a baby boy. But the second child passed away in a few days after birth. Mike and his wife were shattered. Yet, they had to be happy to raise the girl.
