Back-To-School time is truly one of my most favorite times of the year…  I L-O-V-E the organization that the school year brings to me and my family.  I am a planner at heart and having school in session means a routine.  Don’t get me wrong, I relish lazy mornings and days with my children during the summer, but a routine keeps our lives moving forward. To get ready for school this year, we did our back-to-school shopping during the sale days a few weeks ago and I organized all that we purchased into bins and designated spaces for our children.

The spaces are our launching stations for the kids’ school supplies, including school bags, coats and shoes. It makes getting ready for school a snap! Organization is key to get 3 kids off to school each day! We even created a fun and great way too keep our daily events organized with a fancy chalkboard in a central location in our home. To make it even more fun, I bought color chalk markers. Each Sunday night, we figure out what is happening for our week and get ready – sometimes mentally and physically (any of you other Moms have to stretch before the week starts, too??). I have had a fabulous summer and look forward to a fabulous new school year starting next week.
