The Night Before School... For my 1st Grader & Preschooler.

I wrote this post on Instagram and shared on my Facebook page as well, and the response was fantastic - so I wanted to share on my blog as well... in case this may give you some back to school inspiration. My thoughts on going back to school "The Night Before School"... for my 1st Grader & Preschooler this year.

The Night Before School

"'Twas the night before school starting, and all through the house... Little creatures were still stirring as if we were going to see the Mouse. 

Backpacks were hung in the kitchen with care, in the hopes that homework would not soon be in there. 

I was ready to get all snuggled in bed, when suddenly thoughts started racing through my head. 

The lunches! The folders! Had I bought all the cheese? The new shoes! The clothing, had I gotten all they'd need?!? 

Why what to my wondering mind would appear? ... but the realization I'd prepared the best that I could and from here.... Their cheeks like roses and minds ready to fill, they were off to conquer their new grades with great will! 

With a gleam in my eye and a nod of my head, I soon knew I had nothing to dread. I'll speak not a word, but keep on with this great task - of molding and shaping these little people in a stage that won't last. 

And so with resolve, to all the parents out there, I say Happy Night Before School starting - and have a wonderful school year!!!"
