Back To School 101

I can’t wait to share this Back To School 101 roundup. My goodness my kids head back to school tomorrow.. and all though there will be tears of sadness and joy (winks) I am pretty darn ready! as of this morning.. all my kids have been rough housing, fighting, and making messes. I believe in organization and function, but its hard to have that in a home with “6” people not to mention throw in summer. However, I do try and do my best in the organization department. Anyway, by the end of the summer I am ready to get back on a routine and to be organized while doing it. Today on COM I am sharing everything you need to know to have a successful back to school year.
