its that time again when the lazy days draw to a close. the heat doesn't. our kids are sent back a month too early when the summer is really in its blaze of glory. but unless we choose to homeschool, back they go with their drinks frozen and the promise of something freezing on a stick waiting for them at the end of the day.
today, prairie and i went out for a fresh new supply of lyra pencils. i think they are fantastic pencils but as some of you will know, they are not the cheapest option and kids being kids.................so, what could i do other than write her name on them? our dear friend, jules, who came back from texas bearing a ziploc bag supply also bought us a packet of lovely scrapbook paper that looks like fabric. ah ha - perfect for the pencil task at hand.
now to wrap my head around getting out the door two hours earlier than we have become accustomed to doing and what to put in the lunchboxes. bibbity bobbity boo. need. fairy. godmother.
My daughter went back to school today too, no more sleep ins until the weekend now. It would be nice to have a fairygodmother to make the lunches too.

Oooh..Lyra colored pencils. I love them so much. I have the ones my children used in the Waldorf school they attended. They are simply the best.
Also, I love checking in with your blog regularly. Delicious!

Can't remember how I found you, maybe Seven Stitches?, either way, I'm so glad I did.
Lovely place you have here!!
Love the pencil labels.
