Welcome Back to School
by Kenn Nesbitt
"Dear students, the summer has ended.
The school year at last has begun.
But this year is totally different.
I promise we'll only have fun.
"We won't study any mathematics,
and recess will last all day long.
Instead of the pledge of allegiance,
we'll belt out a rock-and-roll song.
"We'll only play games in the classroom.
You're welcome to bring in your toys.
It's okay to run in the hallways.
It's great if you make lots of noise.
"For homework, you'll play your Nintendo.
You'll have to watch lots of T.V.
For field trips we'll go to the movies
and get lots of candy for free.
"The lunchroom will only serve chocolate
and triple fudge sundaes supreme."
Yes, that's what I heard from my teacher
before I woke up from my dream.

This girls started school on August 20th. It was a bittersweet day! I love having all my children home and being able to spend time with them...even if it is doing nothing at all!
Jeslyn is now in junior high and is starting the 7th grade.
Jauncee is still in elementary and is now in the 4th grade.
I sure love these two beautiful girls!
I hope the school year is a success.
At least I still have some company during the day!
