Remember how I was wondering why D didn't need crayons for preschool? Well, he and I went to preschool open house yesterday and discovered we had been given the wrong supply list. Argh. The first five things on the preschool open house scavenger hunt had to do with putting away items we didn't have. So after getting our flu shots at the local clinic (argh again), we got back in the car to head to our local Target.
I don't know if you've noticed, but the school supplies are GONE. No, not gone if you need to buy a plastic ruler or some double sided sticky tape or a folder in a basic color or a small Spanish dictionary, but if you want a pencil box or a fun wide lined notebook . . . GONE.
Also crayons are back to their normal price. You know how at the height of school supply time they are 59 cents or something? Not any more. And here's another thing. Our list said 12 crayons. Crayons don't come in 12, do they? They come in multiples of 8. I bought the 24 pack because it's a multiple of 12. It seemed logical at the time.
Do you think I got frustrated because I am a little nervous about sending my little buddy off into the big, bad preschool world?
I am open to that idea.
