walking into the new school year

Wednesday, August 22, 2012

We went out for dinner last night to celebrate the new school year.
Charlie-11th!
Andrew-7th!
Libby-9th!
Sea salt brownies were made today.  I've made some sort of brownie on the first day of school since Charlie started kindergarden.
I can't believe how fast the time goes.  Especially this summer.  Didn't it just start?
Happy School Year.

  4. 7aw! your traditions tug on my heart strings. wishing you smooth transitions!

    tell charlie that my kids are digging the snicker doodles and the snicker doodle pie (because I too was too lazy to roll them into balls). In fact, I made them brownie size.

  16. Here in the UK we have another week and a half left of 'summer hols'. My daughter goes back on 5th Sept at which point it always feels like the end of summer ...very sad.

    It's so frighteneing how quickly the time passes and the kids grow up.

    Happy school year to you all.

    School is great: friends, teachers, activities, study. I miss it all, to be honest. By the way, there is some useful site that helps students with their study, might be useful for your kids as well.

    Some families celebrate the beginning of the school year because they consider training a very important process in everyone’s life. Professional writers who work for the coursework paper writing service https://propaperwritings.com/essay-sample-manners.html that proposes not only coursework help (writing coursework papers), but also that proposes writing and editing different types of papers will not argue with the fact that education is an incredibly important part of everyone’s life.

  25. In order to make the study easier, and you could pay more attention to very many points, and the nuances of upcoming projects custom college essays, I ask for help in writing and editing texts here. Because here they gave me the best qualified help.

  26. Although any help is genuinely welcomed, it is more important to be a supportive, proactive parent than it is to be a supportive parent after academic failure and negative behaviors occur.
