{happy first day back to all.......}

First day back at school with students.....

It is going to be one sweet sweet day!

xox

{it must be September...}

today is definitely a

green boot day

and

with the

September rain

comes a new school year

***

{September lesson #1 ....}

We all are students

and life is a school...

we are here to learn.

Problems are simply part of the

curriculum that appear and fade away,

but the lessons we learn will be lifelong.

{September lesson #2....}

remember to have some

puddle splashing fun today....

happy September my friends

~ FIRST DAY BACK AT IT ~

Summer is done....

Found on my patio this morning

a fallen maple leaf

between my

rained on flip flops

how ironic

for the

first day back to school

for my

daughters

... no more bare feet and reading what you want ...when you want

...no more eating whenever you feel like it

I dread bag lunches
I find my creativity is lacking at 6am
I know...I know...
I should be making lunches the night before!
WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME!??






A good thing ....
all that after school snacking!

My girls had a great first day back

considering all the worries

one of them had

about entering high school for the very first time

visit here to see a family celebration that we had in June for this daughter of mine!

~ Blast Off ~

I adore September

For many many reasons

A major one being

I get to go back

School is In

After 10 weeks of holidays

{not just my my kids but for me too}

Yahoo

No students yet

This is teacher week

{where we can still wear our blue jeans...another reason to yahoo about}

I will be getting ready for my Students

Who arrive next week

{ I so love the excitement of seeing the students on the first day}

My apple and pencils will be on my desk

Nothing beats

new pencils

new crayons

new books

new backpacks

new lunch kits

new clothes

and

new students

I really do feel blessed that I love my job so much

{elementary school is #1 in my books}

Another reason to LOVE September...

A is for Apple
