School Shopping

School shopping date night...Red Robin for spaghetti with no sauce, arcade games and jumping for balloons...10 new shirts that he wore all at one time, and two new pairs of "cool jeans" from Old Navy ....two new pairs of kicks, one pair of skater shoes and one pair of sketchers cause, "Mom, Sketchers have air pockets that make you super comfy". Right.
All of the above accomplished in just under two hours. Whew. 
My baby boy starts the big K on monday. As every mom on the planet, I feel strangely conflicted about my first born starting school. 

"Who will drag him by the arm back to class when he goes to the restroom and gets side tracked by cool bugs along the way?"

"Who is going to get him the ten snacks he asks for in the morning before lunch?"

"Who is going to answer his 5 trillion questions about how every thing in the world is made?" 

I'm concerned. 
And exhausted.
And excited for my boy to start a new adventure. Go Lincoln!

Here's some perspective for you...my GRANDSON starts the big K this week! Enjoy it! Be a part of it and most of all don't worry about it. Lincoln is going to be the most popular kid in school!

I hope the big K went great! We missed the cut off this year. My Gina starts next year, and I am a wreck. (I was an Art teacher pre Mommy) I have never thought about homeschooling more than I have now. LOL What is it about sending the first one off? I am sure Lincoln had a blast! How was Mom?
