"You know what, Mom? I think the best part of school is buying new school stuff."
But of course!
I actually thought that it was pretty funny that my daughter said that. Since we homeschool, I didn't know if she was picking up on that 'new school supply' smell/excitement/anxiety in the air.
No anxiety here, though. Everyone knows who their teacher is and where they sit already.
But we still stock up on all the essentials while they're cheap.
I bought six pairs of kiddo scissors - because we can never find any when we need them.
Anyway, I'm sure that finding perfectly doll-sized notebooks had nothing to do with her opinion. ;)
