Back to School means new class, new teachers, new friends and new clothes! My faundest memory as a child was "back to school" days. I remember how excited I got when I put on a new pair of clothes and shoes. When I got to school and open my desk I loved the smell of new crayons. I loved writing with a sharp new pencil. It was a scary time too. I remember looking around the classroom and wondering about the new girls and asking myself if they would want to be my friend. Not much as changed. I see my kids going through the same experiences. Even as an adult we get excited about a new pen, new clothes, new callings, and new friends. I still look around the room and wonder if the new girl would like to be my friend. Its funny how much life doesn't change even into adulthood. With life-experiences under our belt, we can go into new situations with confidence.
Good Luck Conner, Lilly and Max. 2010-2011 will be an exciting year!
