Summer is almost over

Okay, so I know I can not be the only parent ready for school to begin. Or am I? I don’t know about you but being a work from home mom of two with their little friends in and out all day and everyone being hungry when I am trying to work is 100% tiring. I am more productive when my children are in school because I only have to focus on work until it’s time for dismissal.

Getting the kids ready for school is a task in itself but is absolutely necessary to ensure their success. From shopping for school clothing to gathering and shopping for supplies, to making sure they are well rested the night before. You can check out my blog on “How to save money at The Children’s Place for a great back to school” if you need tips on shopping for uniforms or regular school clothes.

Nightly routines for back to school are in effect

During the summer I allow my children to stay up a little later. However, two weeks before school starts I begin the process of getting them both back on their sleep schedule of 9p.m. They absolutely hate it because they know that they will be back in school very shortly. Honestly, while they are frowning I am dancing in my seat right now just thinking about the quiet and peaceful mornings ahead.

My morning routine consists of getting up and making breakfast for my two mini me’s. Approving their clothing selections (even though they are in uniforms). Making sure all assignments and supplies are packed and ready to go.

School Supplies

Shopping for school supplies does not have to be stressful. I shop for supplies at walmart.com, target.com, and Amazon.com. Every year I resubscribe to Amazon Prime and I absolutely love it. If you are not a prime member I would definitely recommend joining. The benefits are absolutely fabulous and worth every penny.

What is the true meaning of school?

As a parent, I completely understand the true meaning of school. I personally take education very seriously because I honestly believe that an education is something no one can ever take from you. A bit Cliche’ I know! So even though my kid’s frown and gripe every morning when I wake them up I know that education is vital in today’s competitive world. I always tell my children that I want them to be better than me and I mean that wholeheartedly.

Conslusion

The first day of school can be both exciting and nerve-wracking for students. However, once they get use to their new teacher and classmates everything will fall into place. Here’s to a successful and happy school year for all. Remember that tomorrow is not promised so live every day to the fullest. Happy first day friends!
