Schools Almost Here!

Hooray! That's what I say! Can't wait for the day when my little angels step onto that big yellow bus and are off to create happy memories in their classrooms with their teachers and schoolmates. Don't get me wrong: we're having a wonderful summer. But Mommy is so ready for summer to be over and is even more ready to get back in the swing of things — with life back to 'normal' (whatever that is). I'm a "scheduler" and a "planner" by nature. Summer has no room for the such. But when it's school time? Ah...I savor each planned moment. In our kitchen we have a white board that lists all of the upcoming actitivies. Be it a book report due, a spelling test, picture day, soccer practices and games, doctor and dentist appointments, etc. it's on that board. Wow, I'm getting excited just thinking about it! So, next week is school shopping and the gathering of school supplies. I state it as so because the list of school supplies is quite exhaustive. I mean two pages long, no exaggeration. Not to mention the $300/yr we have to pay in order for Angel and Alliah to ride to school bus to and from school. Don't you just love our great State of California? Anyways, that's another subject. School is almost upon us and I am so ready to jump into this new season.
