Now, I will warn you, if you get emotional when watching touching movies, I may not necessarily recommend this movie to you. The Christmas Shoes is definitely one of those movies that belongs on The Hallmark Channel (right over there with Mrs. Miracle). There are so many important themes to be taken away from the movie that can be used in our everyday lives, but people only seem to remember them around the holidays. It really shows you not to take your time with your family for granted (an appropriate theme for today's sad occurrences), don't let your work take away your time from the things that truly matter, and always make sure you have a nice pair of shoes on hand! (Okay, so last one was just to try and bring a bit of humor to what can potentially be a really depressing movie/blog post!) Do I recommend the movie? Of course! Am I saying that if you're emotional, be prepared for tears?
