Good Tuesday morning everyone. I trust that everyone's week got off to a good start. As many of you know yesterday was the beginning of back to school in our house with my youngest getting back into the swing of things. She started 6th grade yesterday and while there may have been a few bumps over all I think she felt like it went well.
After I had gotten home the first thing she reported was all of the walking she had to do and how lost and turned around she got throughout the day. I will say that I really like when schools transition the younger grades in so to give them the opportunity to get to know the lay of the land so to speak. So yesterday it was just the 6th graders walking the halls so if there was any day to get lost or walk into the wrong class yesterday was the day to do it because more than likely you wouldn't be alone or the only one. Lizzybeth reported that she lost her Vera Bradley lunch box

Since it was just her first day and she was probably extremely overwhelmed I told her to return today and check with teachers and the lost and found.
Last night I made her a back to school dinner which consisted of her favorite cuisine Mexican and her big sister made her a cake. Then we had a visit from my niece for dinner. My niece is just a few years younger than myself so she's more like my younger sister since her mum/my oldest sister is 19yrs older than myself. She stayed for dinner and we had fun reminiscing about what it was like for us in school and growing up when we were young. And of course there were stories about my mum that had us holding our stomachs.
I hope that all my friends have a wonderful day and I look forward to hearing about all the goings on in your lives.
