I have the sweetest little girl in my class who always compliments my shoes. Last week she noticed that I have the same pair in two different colors. She also noticed that a few other teachers had the same pair! (Tieks brand….amazing) Our cute exchange of words went something like this…
“Mrs. Dennis, why do all the teachers have those shoes?”
“They’re a super comfy shoe and teachers really like super comfy shoes.”
“Where do you buy them?”
“From an online store.”
“Is it called super comfy teacher shoe store?”
Giggling of course I reply, “Yep, it’s called something like that.” 🙂
Today she let me know that she liked the sound that the heels of my boots made. Love the little things my firsties notice about me throughout the day. I wonder if she will like my shoes tomorrow.

So cute! 5th graders say very different things, like “those shoes are on fleek.” And I say “hmm?”

Agreed. The more “super comfy,” the better.

It’d these little things that always kept me looking forward to life teaching primary kids. What a sweet and funny little story!

I always remember loving when my teachers wore “clicky” shoes. The ones you can hear in the hall. I still think of it every time my shoes click down the hall. ☺
