Have you seen my shoes???

I fall for it EVERY time....I don't know what is wrong with me!!

I met my co-teacher, Allyson about 3 1/2 years ago when she she started working at the church preschool I was working at. We were paired together that first year and have taught together since. I love her dearly, we have a lot in common, totally think alike, our kids are friends, I have fun with her in and out of work, I can't imagine teaching with anyone else. That being said....SHE IS EVIL!!! I say that in the most loving way. :)

A few times during our school year we get to have the bounce house set up as a special treat for the kids or if it's bad weather, it may be set up for playground time since we can't go outside. Today was a rainy day so the bounce house was set up for us to use during playground time. The kiddos love it and we even get in and jump and play with them. As everyone knows, shoes are not allowed in inflatable play things so everyone's shoes are piled up outside the entrance. INCLUDING MINE!! Herein lies the problem. I forget EVERY TIME that she thinks it is HILARIOUS to hide my shoes from me. So when it's time to get out and leave, my shoes are missing in action. I am now forced to go searching for them. Today was no exception. As I was getting out...it hit me and I thought to myself, "Oh crap, did she hide my shoes?" Sure enough, I go to the spot where I had left them and they were no longer there. It wouldn't be so bad, but I don't particularly like walking around barefoot (unless I'm in a house) and she knows this. Which is precisly why she does it!! I am now on the hunt for my shoes, walking on the sides of my feet so as little of my feet are touching the floor as possible. Yes, I'm wierd that way and I am OK with it! :) I had to play "hot and cold" to find them. I even had our 2 year olds helping (if you can call it that) me. I, of course, did end up finding them with her laughing hysterically the whole time. **SIGH** Luckily, I do have a good (warped) sense of humor also so I do find that kind of stuff funny, but really, how many times am I going to fall for that?!?!

Laugh it up girlie, your day is comin'!!! :)


Until next time...
