For those with children...

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?!!"

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

I reeeeeaaaaallllly want to laugh at this one.

However, as the father of 2 boys 3 and 5, I find that this is too close to home.
