COWBOY BOOTS Anyone who has ever dressed a child will
love this one!
Did you hear about the Texas teacher who was helping
one of her kindergarten students put on his cowboy
boots?
He asked for help and she could see why. Even with her
pulling and him pushing, the little boots still
didn't want to go on. Finally, when the second boot
was on, she had worked up a sweat. She almost cried
when the little boy said, "Teacher, they're on the
wrong feet." She looked and sure enough, they were.
It wasn't any easier pulling the boots off than it was
putting them on. She managed to keep her cool as
together they worked to get the boots back on-this
time on the right feet. He then announced, "These
aren't my boots."
She bit her tongue rather than get right in his face
and scream, "Why didn't you say so?" like she wanted
to. And, once again she struggled to help him pull
the ill-fitting boots off his little feet. No sooner
they got the boots off and he said, "They're my
brother's boots. My Mom made me wear 'em."
Now she didn't know if she should laugh or cry. But,
she mustered up the grace and courage she had left to
wrestle the boots on his feet again. Helping him into
his coat, she asked, "Now, where are your mittens?"
He said, "I stuffed 'em in the toes of my boots."
Her trial starts next month!!!!
