The socks and shoes are bought.
The school supplies are bulging
from their back packs.
My bank account is empty.
The morning air is cool again.
That can only mean one thing.
It time for school.
I have to admit I love the school supply shopping part.
I always get myself something new.
On the first day, Ben and I dropped them off with kisses and hugs
and they were on their way. I think we were the only parents who did the
"drop and run" on the first day. We had a bike ride to get to!
Their was a sea of parents at the school with cameras and video.
Leawood Elementary even had a mascot to greet the children.
Love that place but there sure is a lot of pomp and circumstance.
Everyone loves their teachers.
I love having 8 long hours of peace.
It's an adjustment but I think I'll manage!
I may finish writing my book after all.
I hope your school year is off to great start like ours.
For now I think I'll start one of these projects on my list.
