It’s hard for me to believe the kids are going back to school already! What happened to summer?
My heart tells me summer just started, but every store tells me different. The back to school supplies are out everywhere, along with fall decorations! If you look around a little, I’m sure you can find Christmas decorations too.

Cora is the only grandchild to my sister and her husband (and likely to remain the only one). Therefore, too, my only great-niece, so you know I’m excited!
I hope she lives close to you so you can join in the fun.

I remember those days of getting up middle and high schoolers for school. Not an easy task!
No my daughter who is in High school is not excited to go back to school.
I hope her year turns out to be surprisingly good for her!
We homeschool, so I am still deciding on the best time to start back. My daughter is looking forward to the new school year, but keeps asking if we can still go to the pool! haha!!
I think public school often starts too soon, don’t you? When my kids were in school it was always the day after labor day. I like that, no one has to wonder when it starts, everyone knows.
I think my daughter is exicted. She loves college and where she’s chosen. I know she loves that this year she’ll have her own room so she doesnt’ have to worry about studying in the hallway if her roommate is sleeping!
I’m happy for her that she won’t have to do that too!
My oldest daughter graduated from college this past May. My youngest daughter is starting her junior year at ole miss and is looking forward to parts of starting back, like friends and fun. But not looking forward to studying.
College is tough but worth it. She just needs to keep her eyes on the light at the end of the tunnel!
We homeschool year round, but they are excited about many of the different workshops and field trips we are planning this Fall/Winter.
How exciting! My grandchildren are homeschooled too.
My children are excited to see their friends but not excited about having to get up so early in the morning.
I can understand that! I hope they adjust quickly.
They are somewhat excited, they love summer vacation.
I hope they have a wonderful year.
I have two kids in high school this year. They both seem excited to be going back. Thanks.

She does not want the summer to end and doesn’t want to meet her teacher before the first day of school.

I plan to transfer and finish my SW degree in the future. Anyway, I’m excited, but I am also extremely nervous about starting my minor!
