Making going back to school fun, especially after a summer of best friends, activities and sleeping in, is important for me. I want my kids to look forward to school, not dread it. So each year, I throw a party.

| Our new plaque-A little reminder :) |

| Random neighbor kids showed up. The boy on the end (the one with no shirt) is a sweetheart. LOL. |
We had a great time. School starts on Tuesday.
I am excited about....watching Maddie bring home art and assignments that she is proud of, going to school parties, carnivals, concerts, holiday programs and other fun activities and watching my two kids grow, mature and make new friends.
Am I ready to wake up at 6 am?! NO!
Am I worried about how Ashlin will do with her best friend (her sis) gone at school all day long? YES! I will have to have lots of play dates for her-especially if I am going to be working from home.
Happy New School Year Everyone! ~S
A back to school party is a fun idea. Thanks for the card, we're very much in love with our little boy! :)
