Did you feel the earth moving a little this morning? I suspect it was from the many parents doing a happy dance as the kids are back to school. As I was waiting for my youngest Rugrat to fully gain consciousness, I grabbed his new shoes and took a moment to record their just new look from the store before they come home this afternoon covered in desert dusty. I thought his Black and White Converse sneakers were a perfect fit for this week’s offering on Monochrome Weekly. Be sure to click on over to view black and white photographs submitted by those who love the monotones.
As I took my son onto the playground in search of his new teacher, I was told Mrs… Beck was wearing a black and white dress. After walking around aimlessly for a few minutes, I began to realize that many teachers had called one another the night before to discuss what they would be wearing the first day back to school. Black and White!
Some students were obviously more interested in what their friends had to say,
while others, like my son, were intent on listening to every word Mrs… Beck had to say.
Once inside the classroom, the students quickly found their seats…
and got to learning as quickly as possible.
And then there was some serious coloring happening.
So when do you get to do the Back to School Happy Dance? I know I started getting a few emails and saw a few postings on Facebook about children returning to school already this past week. Leave me some comments and links and I will check them out.
