I am writing on Monday so – it’s tomorrow. Really, by the time this posts the new school year will have already begun, at least in my town.
I personally haven’t had a first day of school in more years than I will admit, but I remember that feeling. Excited about seeing friends and wearing new clothes. Anxiously looking forward to breaking the binder on a new composition notebook. Great new pens. To this day, I get a charge out of great new pens.
And, of course, that excitement always kept me awake. As hard as I tried to make sure to get a good night’s sleep to start off the school year, that never happened.
In my house, it’s our last start of a school year – at least one that isn’t college – and we’re all awake. The school bag is packed, alarms are set, and a new school year is about to begin.
What do you remember about starting the school year?
