Surviving Back to School

It's almost that time...back-to-school time! Seriously, how does summer go by so fast? Maybe it's all the time outside, at neighborhood parties, play dates, phew!

But how do you make going back to school easier. My best advice is to stay on top of all the paperwork that comes home. When your child brings home papers from the school - HANDLE THEM ONCE!

Read it, write it down in your calendar that minute, then recycle it. You will never miss a bake sale, or field trip, or end up with a huge pile of papers and not know what is going on.

Your life will be much simpler if you can manage all the paperwork this way (that goes for homework too.)
