Hi!
 
I �d like to share this nice story with you-I hope you �ll like it( one of my friend sent it to me)

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 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.

Have a nice weekend!!!

And isn �t it ironic, don �t you think ...
It �s like raa-ee-aaain on your wedding day,
it �s a freee riiiiide when you �ve already paid,
it �s the good advi-eeee-ce that you just didn �t take,
and who would have thought, it figures....
