As a child I always enjoyed going back to school, but mostly I loved what led up to that point. I remember spending all day with mom and my 4 siblings trying to find new school clothes that were "in", looked good and were cheap! We were each given about a hundred dollars for new school clothes...I didn't think it was that much at the time, but now being in a position where we don't always have a couple hundred of dollars laying around...I can understand why school shopping was full of many emotions! We would spend the morning shopping then take a lunch break at Taco Bell for a quick refuel and back out for more shopping! When we finally got home, we'd separate everyone's clothes and school supplies and end the day with a fashion show for dad! Those were fun memories...although I have pictures to prove the clothes that were selected were not always MY choice!
I can't wait to make memories like this with my own children...or then again,
yes, I can wait!
