From summer time camps and lazy breakfasts to early morning wake ups, back-to-school is right here!

this !

First day of kindergarten and sixth grade!

I believe that was the quickest summer time in historical past

Most likely as a result of it was! Our youngsters had every week shorter summer time than ordinary as a result of they’ll get out at Memorial Day in 2025. But in addition since Birch is beginning elementary faculty, he goes again with the general public faculty youngsters this yr! In earlier years, his preschool began after Labor Day.

Additionally new this yr is a a lot earlier begin time

Birch’s preschool began at 9, which meant we had a reasonably simple morning routine. This yr it’s 7:45am. AHHH! I gotta get again on my 9pm – 6am physique clock (so does he). 

Goodbye Summer season Camp

Birch’s final week of camp was additionally his final week at his candy preschool. He began there as a tiny 2-year-old in fall of the pandemic carrying a masks. 4 years later, he’s off to massive hallways and a cafeteria. 

It’s in all probability time to say farewell to the stroller, too! 

B2S haircut!
