2ND and 4TH Grade!

I have to remind myself that I have a 2nd grader and 4th grader in the house!  Yesterday was the first day of school, which to me means a more rigorous daily schedule and more preparation on my part. Weeks before we hit the stores and purchased all their back to school supplies and I spent the other night sorting, labeling, and packing them up.  The smell of newly sharpened pencils and Crayola crayons always remind me of a new school year!

After school all reports were good for the first day - friends were reunited and play date plans were made.  As I type this, the boys are working on their homework.  To make sure things aren't too serious too quickly, we're planning to get away again for a short trip soon.
