A day late and a dollar short

Okay, more like 3 days but it's here now. The worst mother ever presents her bedraggled children on their third day of school. I'm so not that mother that year after year, fastidiously takes a photo on the first day of school in her child's brand new outfit, new backpack bursting with shiny new school supplies.

Nope, these kids are wearing cruddy old (and probably not clean) clothes. In fact I'm pretty sure Henry slept in that tee last night. Their school supplies consist of nubby pencils with the erasers chewed off and backpacks with poke holes and mystery stains. But at least they're smiling. Without much badgering from me I might add.

All of these monsters are now in high school. God save me.
