These shoes were black this morning! HONESTLY!
Earlier this week Jubilee said she needed new shoes for church and so I went to my storage room and found this pair of shoes that Jolene used to wear; only they were black! There were a couple places that the black had started to wear away, but not too bad. When she came to the baby room after Sunday School I was horrified, and a little amused, to see her shoes look like this. They were obviously made of cheap construction and the paint, being old, wore away quickly as she probably sat on her knees.
On the way home I envisioned someone taking up a collection for the poor Plattners that couldn’t afford decent shoes for their little girl. :) We are SOOOO BLESSED! In some places they would be glad to have a pair of shoes that fit and here we are going to get a new pair and not think twice about it.
P.S. The toes weren’t covered in dirt this AM either!

Mary and I will attest to the fact that these shoes had a whole lot more black polish on them in church this morning! We can throw in $5...
