Can you feel the love?

Okay, so the other day I stopped by Kitchen with Kids and saw Elle Bee’s post on dry erase boards.  She uses hers to motivate, inspire, and or just leave sweet messages to her family.  She inspired me to buy one for my house.  I bought a smaller one to hang on our fridge.  It wasn’t up an hour before the kids got to it.

Tomorrow is their first day back to school.  Not only is it their first day back but it’s the Twins very first day of high school and Babygirl’s first day of middle school.

My youngest starts middle school this year too but that's not until 3 more weeks. I can't believe how fast this summer has gone. I thought it just started!!!

This is a great idea for writing messages, even if the kids do tease one another! Your children are beautiful. I hope they have a great first day at school.

My baby girl is starting middle school too. Exciting time!
I use a dry erase board to remind my son of all the things he needs to do - it beats nagging!
1. Summer reading
2. Write essays for summer reading
3. Summer physics
4. Get to work on college apps!
etc. etc. etc.

I love all the comments they wrote, Ingrid. : ) So sweet and funny. We have a giant one on the side of the fridge and you never know what might show up on it. We also use it when Sam's studying spelling words. It's pretty handy.

teresa said...

LOL, i got a total giggle out of this because we were all the same way growing up. your kids are adorable, good luck with everything!

Faith said...

The dry erase board is such a good idea! I love what you guys wrote -- it would have been the same in my house growing up! :)

Robin said...

"I just hate all of you!" that made me laugh so hard, now that is something my oldest would say- but not mean it of course! We start school in 3 weeks and I am not ready at all. I always hate to see it start! Wow you are a mom to 2 HS boys now, this is exciting times for them, it will go so fast!

Unknown said...

So cute!! That's such an awesome idea! Until you let a bunch of teens get a hold of it! LOL!!!!

Ha! My kids would have written similar messages given the chance. Siblings are funny (says the girl who grew up an only child).
