Writing the year 2024 just messed me up for a second. Is it already the ’24/’25 school year? When did that happen??
I wrangled up all the supplies I need for my FIVE kids going into FULL TIME school! This will be a first, let me tell you!! Not that the days will be free of responsibility. I still have babies. But the five school kids will all be in school, every day. Crazy days ahead!
Ok but thats not the point. The supplies!
Goodness there was just SO much!!! Ack! I’m really grateful to be able to buy supplies without too much panic, and getting fairly close to what is asked of us as parents to provide. I get the wrong glue sticks. I know. I just cannot justify the cost of the UHU ones! But otherwise I do pretty good, haha!
I’ve spent time this week getting things sectioned out for each kid, into their backpacks, labelled and ready for the fall. I’ve taken note of the things that are still missing, of which there are few. A couple of kids need indoor shoes. And somehow I missed one of those dark green Hilroy notebooks, and two red plastic cover folder pocket things, to use a technical term. But thats really it! I think I’m as prepared as I can be at this point! At least prepared enough to put it all away for now, and focus on other things.
Because as we ALL know, there is never a shortage of things to do around here!
