I had the kindergarten students in for story-time this morning.
I told one of the little guys that I liked his shoes.
He informed me that he had much nicer ones at home. He called them his wedding shoes.
I asked if someone special was getting married.
"No, no one is getting married," he replied, "but my grandpa got dead."

You know you've got great shoes if you've worn them to a funeral.
Something magical about them...
I still remember the shoes that I wore to my grandpa's funeral. I tolerated how uncomfortable they were because I couldn't go whining about my feet hurting when we were burying a one legged man, now could I?
Hippo - It is so great to hear from you again! I thought maybe I had offended you or something.
I've never thought of funeral shoes as magical before, but since they brought you back, maybe they are just that - magical.
Mist - No, that just wouldn't be prudent. Those shoes may have been uncomfortable, but were they snazzy?
I feel bad laughing at a got dead grandpa, but how can I not?
out of the mouth of babes! Kids are the coolest thing
Carrie - I felt exactly the same way.
Katy - They sure can bring a smile to one's day.
