Whew, I am finally done with the planning stage! Just have a few last minute books to purchase and the wonderful back to school supplies. Pencils, pens, notebooks, binders…Oh My!!! I have been good and restrained from buying any supplies yet…It is hard for this lover of school supplies.
On August 16th we will crack back open the books. I have to admit I am ready to get back into the swing of things…the girls not so much. That’s normal though, right?
