Back to School




We have a Back 2 School tradition in our home that we do every year. Each year I have the kids pick out a colored piece of construction paper. This year we used scrapbook paper. On that piece of paper they write their name, grade, weight, height and any interesting facts about themselves. We pull these papers out again at the end of the school year and update them. It is always fun for us to see the big changes each child has made in terms of growth.



Another tradition that we do every year is my hubby and I write a welcome letter to each child for the new grade level. We give it to them the night before and spend a time praying as a family for the new school year. Our kids enjoy this time immensely and look forward to the loving words on their new letters every school year.



Do you have any Back 2 School traditions in your home? Please do share...


In Him,

Amy
