Child's Cowboy Boots
The Cowboy Boots: (Anyone who has ever dressed a child will love this)
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 quickly
found out why he needed it. 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 scream at him, "Why
didn't you say so?" Once again she struggled to help
him pull the ill-fitting boots off his little feet.
No sooner had they gotten the boots off his feet, 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."
The teacher will be eligible for parole in three years.
