1st Day Top 10 List

Monday will be here soon!! I can't wait to really dig in. G on the other hand, has put in his request to take it easy on him!! I will, I will!! I advised him Monday will be like the first day of school when he went to public school with some slight differences.

Top 10 Ways our 1st day of school will differ from our Public School Counterparts:

1. Mommy doesn't get to attend the "Woo-Hoo Boo-Hoo" after I have said good-bye to my little munchkin. Thus, no free donuts, juice and talk about all we're going to accomplish with all this free time. (What is 'free-time' anyway??)
2. We can sleep in since our commute only involves walking into the dining room.
3. No back packs or lunches to pack.
4. No need for introductions or feeling shy, since we all know each other.
5. No ironing of uniforms or school clothes! (Not that I iron anyway!)
6. No need for name tags, tours of the school or explanation of school policies.
7. Mommy doesn't need to sign up for PTA events and/or to bring snacks for class. In this establishment, I already wear all those hats!
8. We allow our dog to go to school with us (reluctantly at times) versus allowing her to stare out the window as we drive away for the entire day.
9. We can move around and not have to sit in our seats all day long! Heck, we'll probably lay on the couch and/or beanbag chair to get some reading in.
10. We get to wear our PJs to school!!! (Not that there aren't a few parents out there who drive their kiddos to school wearing their robes. That is not the same as, Junior is more than mortified and hopes no one sees him being dropped off.)

Whatever you do and whenever you start!! I hope it's a fabulous stress-free day!! Make each day your own and learn as you go!! As always, remember -- you can accomplish a lot in your PJs. We do!!
