So I don't even have any kids GOING to school this year, and yet I still felt it today!!! There was a crowd of kids waiting for the bus at our corner, traffic on the way to the gym, a TON of people in the cardio area (thankfully I was already into my 3 miles before they came), and people were waiting for the FitLinxx strength machines!!! I had to stop by Target on my way home from the gym (I was SO embarrassed - all nasty and sweaty) because I had NO diapers in the house for Callie. As I was walking in and getting the 3 kids situated, a lady passed me and said "Don't worry - in a few years, you'll be like me - dropping off all your kids to school and then shopping at Target in peace by yourself!!!" Pretty funny. I'm excited about this year at home with all 3 kids - although shopping at Target by myself is pretty appealing too! One day!!
To all you 1st day of school-ers - can't wait to hear how it goes today!!!

the Y always did get busy during school...no worries, a lot of them give up a couple weeks in. it should clear out for you soon! :) the days of no kids and quiet shopping will be nice but no need to rush it, right? :) i find myself wanting to hold on more and more lately b/c I'll have SO many years to shop alone, etc... this time is so short and it keeps passing faster and faster! :) Josiah's going to enjoy his school time with mommy this year before he takes off next year!
Grayson loves back to school becasue he gets to see the school bus 3 times a day, morning, Kindergarten drop-off, and afterschool! There were more kids and moms today than before though. Some day all too soon it will be all of us with "nothing to do all day"!!
