Check your calendars people...it is only a few days into July. I'm a Virgo and I procrastinate. In theory I want to plan everything and line up the world in alphabetical or ROY G BIV order but that can't happen so I do it where I can. Sometimes I battle though and get to those things but it might take a bit. SO every summer I think about how my daughter needs a new place to put her lunch and another to carry books and before you know it...it's late August and we are scrambling. Halloween costumes and birthday party themes come in with a photo finish as well most years. Today, I stared at a wall of pink and blue and green and black. I went from size to size to color to price. I picked them up. Zipped them. Imagined cleaning crumbs out of them. I was the tester with the white coat and the #17 badge inspecting the choices. I also faced the milestone of having to buy the set for my little guy as well. I don't think I have let is seep in completely as to not fall down in a crumbling crying mess in the store. My buddy will be off to all day kindergarten come September and that will be another event in itself. And he'll be doing it with blue and orange sharks.
Before fireworks celebrated the birthday of our country I have already purchased the school necessities and I am quite proud!!! Those glittery explosions might have been for our beloved nation but I'd like to believe that just one or two were for my newly purchased backpacks...
