Moses, sandals, and an afternnoon stroll with Jimmy, Alan, and John

So, this morning I was teaching my Moses and the Burning Bush story, which by the way is one of my favorites. I always have such a captive audience for this one. I bring one of our big plants for the bush and then I have fire cut out of paper that I add to the bush, I wear a pair of John's sandals, and have one of our shepherd's staffs from the yard along with a rubber snake. You probably can see already why my audience is so attentive to the story what with all those fun props. Today after explaining what a shepherd does and why Moses wore sandals (probably not like John's, but close enough) I proceeded to take my shoes off and put the sandals on. I noticed at this time that I had on two different colored socks, one navy and one black, oops. Well, I figure no three year old is going to notice or care about it, but sure enough, one little boy says immediately that I have two different socks on. (Wow, I better use that lesson for same and different) I told them it was part of the story and they didn't talk about it again. This is not the first time I have worn two different socks, gosh I have already come to school in two different shoes! Anyway the rest of the story went on without a hitch.
Since this is my short day, I took a walk after lunch. I cranked up the tunes in the ipod and took a brisk walk with Jimmy Buffet and Alan Jackson. I cooled down to a few John Denver songs. It was a beautiful day to take a stroll with these three lovely gentlemen. If only Moses had been there it would have been complete!
