2 days and counting - and my kid goes back to SCHOOL!
Now some parents are stressed up to the last minute getting school supplies and clothes. The Shopping malls are busy.
Kids grow like weeds over the summer - NO I didn't put any fertilizer on the kid while he was sleeping.
Excitement is in the air, what the first days of the school year will be like. Who will be in class, will any of the friends I had last year be there. Who is my TEACHER? The questions go on.
As a parent, I take it in stride - only having one child now 13, isn't as much of anxiety for me anymore. I do appreicate having more children and all different ages can take it's toll. (bless each and everyone who had many children to shop for)
Our school had us pre-pay for school supplies so that's taken care of. The clothes issue, well t-shirts and jeans - already done. Shoes on the other hand...or foot - just how much can a foot grow over the summer - amazes me. Maybe the kid will wear the boxes on his feet...duct tape them on.
Enjoy this time of year and when the BELL RING'S a SIGH of RELIEF from parents all over will be heard.
