Back to School?!

So, everyone keeps asking me how it is not having to work anymore and finally be a stay at home mom. My only response is that I am not really sure what it is like yet. As a teacher, we get our whole summer off so I am used to being home all summer anyway. Only last week did the reality set in...I went to Walmart to pick up some stuff and they were taking down all the summer/4th of July stuff. In its place they were putting up back to school stuff. The first thing I did was run over and try to find pencil boxes and see if I could buy 30 of the same color. Then I noticed that they uped the price this year too. 62 cents per box. Then I remembered that I don't have to shop for school supplies this year. It was a very strange feeling. I love staying home with Harrison and now I can finally say I am feeling like a stay at home mom. Now all I need is a house to take care of! Good luck to all you teachers out there with the back to school sales...it is weird to walk by and not be filling my cart with school supplies and looking for all the teacher appreciation sales!
