BACK TO THE DAILY GRIND {A FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL RECAP}

Well,

this is our 3rd week of school

& I thought that I would

give myself 20 minutes to sit down and share

with you how our 1st day of school went.

So, 

every year on the first day of school ,

we have a tradition.

I always take

Little Person's first day of school photo.

I have been doing this ever since

he started Preschool.

Sounds great right????

Well..it is usually not so great

because I usually have to add an extra 10 minutes to the routine

& Little Person is already anxious about getting to school.

It always involves

me taking no less than 100 photos

of Little Person posing

at our front door

while he is holding his new backpack & new lunchbox.

I even take a photo of his new tennis shoes.

I know that it is crazy but someday 

we will look back at the photos and remember

just what his was "into" at that time

and laugh at how the shoes styles have changed.

Here is his first day of school photo from last year:

Apparently hew was into Lego Star Wars last year...

and he looks like he is trying to bolt out the door.

Here is this year's first day of school photo:

OMG....he looks like he grew at least 10 inches since the last photo!

And this year we are ALL about

Pokemon!

As if this isn't enough,

I also take him to school on the first day

and take his photo

at the front door of the school:

This year,

Little Person turned around and said to me:

"Hurry up Mom...You are embarrassing me!"

What??????!!!!....You are still young and you have a ton

of Mom embarrassment coming your way Mister!

Well just to add to the embarrassment factor,

I made him stand next to his teacher for another photo!

After all of that,

I treated myself to 

Beignets from the local coffee shop

and a little time with my

Farmer's Wife Sampler Quilt:

because it has been FOREVER

since I even looked at that quilt!

Thanks for listening and I hope that you can relate to the first day of school

embarrassment.

Until Next Time...Happy Quilting
