08.24.12 = Flashback Friday – First Day of School
With school starting back this week and seeing all the kids waiting at their bus stops on my drive into work, I couldn’t help remember those first days of school. How everything was so new. A new book bag and a new lunch box. The smell of new crayons and glue. We always got a new pair of shoes and for weeks before school, we would put them on and wear them around in our room. Okay, maybe not everyone did that, but I’ve had a love of shoes since I was 3. Anyway, don’t you remember walking into your new classroom and everything looked and smelled so perfect? Where were you going to sit and who would you be sitting by? A good friend or a new friend? Remember those little milk cartons and the paper straws? Recess and games like hop-scotch, four-square and dodge ball. Wow, it’s been a long time since I thought about that.

on August 24, 2012Another wonderful memory inducing shot. My kids are just about to start back next week, and my son is even changing schools, a huge thing for him.
