Did you hear about the Texas teacher who was helping one of her kindergarten students put on his cowboy boots?<\/h2>\n

He asked for help and she could see why. Even with her pulling and him pushing, the little boots still Didn\u2019t want to go on. By the time they got the second boot on, She had worked up a sweat.<\/p>\n

She almost cried when the little boy said, \u2018Teacher, They\u2019re on the wrong feet.\u2019 She looked, and sure enough, they were. It wasn\u2019t 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.<\/p>\n

He then announced, \u2018These aren\u2019t my boots.\u2019<\/p>\n

She bit her tongue rather than get right in his face and scream, \u2018Why didn\u2019t you say so?\u2019, 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\u2019re my brother\u2019s boots. My Mom made me wear \u2019em.\u2019<\/p>\n

Now she didn\u2019t 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.<\/p>\n

Helping him into his coat, she asked, \u2018Now, where are your Mittens?\u2019<\/p>\n

He said, \u2018I stuffed \u2019em in the toes of my boots.\u2019<\/p>\n

She will be eligible for parole in three years.<\/p>\n

A science teacher asked her students<\/h2>\n

\u201cChildren, if you could own one material, what would it be?\u201d<\/p>\n

One girl said, \u201cI would choose gold. It\u2019s worth lots of money and I could buy a Corvette.\u201d<\/p>\n

One boy said, \u201cI would want platinum because it\u2019s worth more than gold and I could buy a Porsche.\u201d<\/p>\n

The teacher said, \u201cLittle Johnny, What would you want?\u201d<\/p>\n

Johnny said, \u201cI would want silicone.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy would you want silicone?\u201d Asked the teacher<\/p>\n

\u201cWell my mom got some, he replied,\u00a0\u201cand there\u2019s always a Porsche or Corvette sitting in our driveway.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Early one morning, a mother went in to wake up her son.<\/h2>\n

\u201cWake up, son. It\u2019s time to go to school!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBut why, mom? I don\u2019t want to go!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cGive me two reasons why you don\u2019t go!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, the kids hate me, and the teachers hate me, too!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOh, that\u2019s no reason not to go to school. Come on now and get ready!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cGive me two reasons why i should go to school!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, for one, you\u2019re 52 years old. And for another,\u00a0you\u2019re the principal<\/strong>!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
