I mean, let's ju...Suzanne - I feel your pain! <br /><br />I mean, let's just look at the very-very practical:<br /><br />the shoes could be tracking ANYTHING in - requiring more cleaning<br /><br />and what about working on the floor? Not everything can be adjusted to work on tables, though I have seen atriums do as much as possible on tables - they just don't DO those large works! Which is a terrible result! <br /><br />And then you have the littlest ones sitting there playing with laces and velcro and all those gizmos kids have on their shoes. <br /><br />Of course, I had to mention to a level THREE child this past Wednesday evening (a child who'd been in the atrium for four years now! This is her fifth year!) to stop pulling on her socks! ;) <br /><br />Socked feet are just easier to tuck under one's knees. <br /><br />Oh yes - and now winter is coming on - and the kids bring in boots. There is simply no practical place for boots stomping around the atrium!<br /><br />Can you tell I feel strongly ;) Jessica https://www.blogger.com/profile/07750741589516318310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2906844371343864332.post-1230727088712306552012-11-14T03:16:46.671-05:002012-11-14T03:16:46.671-05:00I am so glad to see this post on removing your sho...I am so glad to see this post on removing your shoes for the atrium - that is the way I was trained in both Wisconsin and Iowa. Unfortunately our local parish atrium (of which I am not a part of) does not honor this respectful practice and I find it so lacking in the essence of the "Holy Ground."Suzanne Schaub Wilhelmihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17320828914171355591noreply@blogger.com
