Back to School Shopping

Long before my Peanut was ready to start school and long after I was heading back to school, I referred to all fall shopping as “back to school shopping”. I mean, is there anything more fun than back to school shopping? The excitement of a new year, a new wardrobe, a new you.

Well, this year, Peanut is embarking on a new adventure: Pre-school 2 mornings a week. And, we couldn’t be more excited. School starts Monday and I have had his little backpack packed and ready by the door for days. His first day of school outfitt is washed and ready to wear.

I will post a picture of him on his first day.  I doubt he will cry as I leave him on his own in his new classroom.  But, I am sure that I will.

(update: we both cried.)
