Barefootin’ in November

 Just as the sand was filling the sandbox, the afternoon Robins class came out to help and investigate.  Before any adult could say a thing . . . ALL the shoes were off!  Not a single child asked . . . they all knew without a doubt the only way to truly experience a brand new sandbox was without shoes. 

 

True, it was the Tuesday before Thanksgiving, generally not a time for barefootin’.  But, it was as if God understood the children’s need for a complete experience, toes and all, and blessed us with a beautiful spring day in the midst of harsh fall weather. 

 

Barefootin’ in the brand new sandbox . . .                                        an experience not soon forgotten!
