Back Packs On!
We hadn't planned for either of them to have back packs so soon--but I love getting to check that off the list.
Not one hour after having a long discussion with Gracie about how she really needed to choose a good and sturdy back pack for school this year, and how the ones she insists on having in year's past barely made it to June, and sometimes didn't--she talks Grandma & Grandpa into buying her a Frozen backpack at Toys R Us.
What'cha gonna' do?
Tonight Thomas got his backpack--also unplanned. I think his is the perfect size for Kindergarten, but I am not familiar with the brand, so I am unsure of the endurance heavy load power. But, we got it at Marshall's for $13. He fell in love with it the moment he saw it, and it was the ONLY one in the store. So, despite our better instincts we got it for him, making sure he realized that this was the backpack he choose and we were not going to buy another one when he found something he liked better at a different store.
Eh, well, it is done. Now, I just have to tackle those lists! I decided since it is Thomas' first go at real back to school shopping, I want to take the kids individually so we can savor that experience. I figure we will get it done in the next week or so since the supplies have to be taken in on Meet The Teacher Night in late August.
