Back To School!

Boy how time flies.  Sam is now a sophomore at Henderson and Madi is in 1st grade.  Unbelievable how the time has gone by.  If you have school age kids you know what I mean.  This is the time of the year that reminds us not only are the kids getting older but so are we.  This summer seemed particularly fast so I guess that means it was fun and the summer market softened slightly but relatively speaking things were moving better than the last several years. 

Now is the time all parents are preparing for the kids to head off to the bus stop.  New notebooks, lunch boxes, back pack and cloths to name a few.  The next 10 days is a test in patience and focus.  Back to school shopping can be a bit like shopping for food the night before the snow storm, so if your last minute strap on your helmet and a smile.  You'll need it. 

So I am here to suggest some rewards for the parents to help you decompress and stay on track as the holidays near.  Here are some different ideas on how to keep your sanity and have some fun too!


Whatever you do...do it.  Take some time for yourself and you partner to appreciate a little peace and quiet.  A little break now and again will keep you motivated and fresh.  Having even the smallest thing to look forward to can make all the difference of brushing it off and losing it.  Our kids need us sane so take care of yourself parents!
