Love this so much and I can’t believe that your aunt sketched those shoes back in 1935 , she was very talented!!

Wonderful description of what a teacher does through the different shoes. Unfortunately some shoes I wore caused me to have back problems

Love this Linda. Reminds me of my Mom. When getting ready to head to work, on went her teaching shoes. As soon as she was home it was back to running shoes, hiking or ski boots, flip flops, skates ... anything but her dressy teaching shoes
