My kidlets finally are going back in school. You know how I am normally super sentimental about things like that? And how I hate my kids to grow up? And how I hate saying goodbye? Well, not today. For some reason this year, I feel just fine about my kidlets in school. We had a long summer and I’m one happy mama today. Maybe, I’m finally getting used to it. Maybe it will hit later . . . ? So today I have some fun back to school tips to make the back to school process so much easier for mom and the kids. Sometimes all the changes and new routines can be hard on our families, so I’ve got a few ways to help you. AND a super funny video of a kid’s classic end of summer blues.
First of all, the YouTube video we can all relate to. Time for a little laugh. This is a Classic Kids End of Summer Blues reaction.
