Yesterday started with a special church service that included the Blessing of the Backpacks. Lots of kids showed up. It was cool. At the end of the service, the kids lined up and received a special blessing from the pastor. Then they got a balloon and a pencil. 🙂
I spent a while working at school, but it doesn’t feel like I did very much. Today is the first day of school, but it’s only a half day, so it’s a nice warm-up.
I talked on the phone with Beth since it was her birthday. She called me! Ha! She suggested I make BLT’s for dinner. Yum! I did it. I used tomatoes from my garden. They are soooo good!
Happy first half day of school! I know it will go splendidly, and then you have extra time to fret about tomorrow! 🙂
Seriously, I hope it’s a great day.
I think the teachers should get balloons in their classrooms for the first day of school. It would make things appear more festive!
Oh, and they should also have bacon. Definitely bacon.
I love balloons! I agree with kristi! I eat a blt with cucumber instead of tomato….so a blc! Tomatoes are not right in my pallet. Happy school!
