Almost back to school

Okay, so I have to admit I like the idea of the kids going back to school, but even more than that, I get so into the supplies needed for school.
It's the only time you can find crayola crayons in a 25 pack for 25 cents.  That's a Penny a crayon folks, it's like heaven to me.  I stock up.  I love a sharp crayon and recently I found I am not alone.  I love paper, glue, scissors, tape, white out, erasers, and anything else school supply-ish.  But in speaking with other moms and especially teachers, I am so not in this alone. 
I also enjoy the back to school clothes shopping and the smell of new shoes and such, but nothing compares to the supplies!
Emma starts full day first grade this year, and I am nervous for her.  I know in my heart that she will be fine, but will I?  Elias is going to afternoon pre-k(twice a week), and I know I will miss his afternoon cuddles.  My kids still have a week and a half off, I am savoring every minute with them watching movies, riding bikes, swimming, playing outside, coloring, puzzling, and so on.....BUT... I am sure I will find that 2.5 hours of free time a couple of days a week heavenly!!!
