Parent/teacher conferences were today. The teachers had nothing but good things to say, and I’m so proud of both children.
I noticed that a couple of things were missing from my top desk drawer. I was certain that I’d put them there, so I took the drawers out to see if the things had fallen behind. Not only did I find what I was looking for, but there was a whole bunch of other stuff lurking in that dark, dusty place. I found a $10 bill, a Target receipt from 2017, a picture of my son from 2012, a walker pass for the kids (who knows which year), a magnifying lens, a packet of stickers, a camera case, a small notebook, a whole pad of Post-It notes, and at least a dozen tickets for previous years’ Advent calendars. Quite a stash!
Speaking of the Advent calendar, I already printed enough tickets to get us through the 24th. That’s the benefit of having done this so many times before. The designs are all there on my computer. All I have to do is pick which ones I want to use, tweak them if necessary, and print. At least that’s one less thing to stress over at this time of year!
