Schoolyard memory #214

(Kindergarten - Year 2?)

If a male classmate was wearing new black leather shoes/desert boots/sneakers, it was the solemn duty of every boy to stomp on said articles - left foot and right - and shout, "Christened!" I bet our mothers wondered how our shoes got so grubby after a single day.

  2. Haha. I had my suspicions - hence the question mark.
