Back to School is Back!

The new homeschool year has finally arrived. It is that time of year, the time for us to get back to school. You might think it is silly, but I actually look forward to this time of the year. Now don’t get me wrong, I enjoy my summer vacation time, but there is something so renewing about a new school year. I love picking out our homeschool curriculum, planning field trips, and buying school supplies, especially while there is no tax (love those tax free sales!). I also enjoy watching my children get excited about the new school year. Picking out their new school folders, pencils, and other school supplies. Even though we homeschool, I have always let my kids shop for their own school supplies. Besides being fun, I think it helps my kids look forward to starting the new homeschool year. I know when I was a kid, shiny new school supplies always made me feel that way and they still do as an adult. (;
