Then again, public school brings it's own things for which to prepare. (don't I know it!) Enjoy your time, if you can. :)<BR/><BR/>This is one year that I'm ready for fall weather but not quite ready for school. (which is really an opposite reaction for me) I've enjoyed my boys so much this summer and I'll miss them when school starts. Noone can make me laugh like they do (except maybe Robin Williams).lol<BR/><BR/>The keychain looks neat..and so does everything else.
