MY FAVORITE THINGS It seems like yesterday we were singing, “NO more pencils, NO more books, NO more teacher’s dirty looks!” The summer has flown by and soon we will all be back in school. Hope you got to enjoy your summer seeing new places, visiting friends or relatives, or just curled up with some good books. I like the time off (and being able to sleep in), but I do look forward to going back to school and seeing my friends. I like the smell of a new backpack and the first pencil being sharpened. My new lunch box has The Secret Life of Pets characters on it! I LOVE IT! No matter what grade you are heading to, learning new things can be fun! I wish all of you a great new school year.
