The Cowboy Boots

 

Did you hear about the 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.

 

By the time they got

the second boot 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. Once again, she

struggled to help him pull the ill-fitting boots off his little Feet.

No sooner had they gotten the boots off when 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 what

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.'

 

She will be eligible for parole in three years.
