School Days

Okay so I'm sure by now many of you have started back to school as this was the first week of school for many schools across the state.  So in the spirit of back to school, I thought I would post a brief post. 

For those who were stuck in traffic or following school buses, have patience and maybe leave a little bit earlier if you need to or find an alternative way of getting to your destination if possible.   

Perhaps you are a teacher who has been working hard in her classroom to make it just perfect or as close as you can to perfect in expectation of the students' arrival to class.  

For the teachers out there, when you find stressful moments in your day, just remember the acronym 

T.E.A.C.H.

which is short for "To Educate All Children Happily"

As the halls that were silent and empty over the summer soon will fill with students. 

Maybe you fall into the category of the nervous parent who saw his or her son or daughter off to school to Kindergarten for the first time by means of your family vehicle or the school bus.

To those who fall into this category, you can relax.  Your child will be well taken care of and learn a lot and come home excited with lots of papers for you to display on the refrigerator I'm sure and probably have lots of stories to tell you about their day at school.

Here are a few vintage lunch boxes for your enjoyment.  What was your first lunch box growing up or one that you remember using a lot?
