i am excited and I think they are too
My kids are bored with summer already–I can’t wait for them to get back to school so I can start hearing “I hate school!” instead of “I’m bored!”
I love it! Gotta have something to complain about dont they?

I’m excited for them to go back to school, I love my kids with all my heart, but we all need a break from each other. Lol!
I love em to, but I love their hugs when they come home from missing me.
I am happy to see them go.
However, I get really excited when I hear the bus!

Hi! New follower from MBC and happy to find a giveaway in progress! I already followed you on twitter some other time; probably a giveaway on the large site recently.
Anyway. Comment. We homeschool, and also school year-round, so the question is a little bit off for our lifestyle, but we are looking forward to using a few new curricula this year and are trying to make it a fun summer!
Thanks for the giveaway; I’d love a follow back if you could!
Thanks!

We’ve had a rough summer of juggling my daughter between Mom & Dad while we work – she’s ready for the focus to be on her – activities geared towards her age – for a change. So excited, but sad, too…

With my oldest heading off to college, I am going to miss him something fierce! But my daughter is starting middle school, and I know she’ll kick some academic butt! And my two youngest will be homeschooling with me for this year — 3rd grade and kindergarten! So I might miss standard public schools after a few weeks!

Exited! We have no family / friend here and he needs to be with kids. My son only goes half day and while he plays at school I spend time with my 7 months old baby.
It’s a win win for everybody
Both. I love summer, but the kids and I love school.

Yes I am excited about school starting. My kids are grown but I teach elementary special needs kids. I love to see their smiling faces!
I will for sure miss my kids, but I can’t wait for them to go back. My daughter will be in 2nd grade and my son starts preschool. He is in desperate need for kid socialization outside of family. Plus it gives me quality time with my 4 month old
