Is there anything you do to make yourself feel confident and ready on your first day of school? I miss the back-to-school clothes shopping of my childhood but I know I don't need to fill my closet with any more outfits.. so those Fall shopping sprees are a thing of the past. But, I always love to get something new to celebrate the first day of school! Something that screams preschool, but also fits my vintage style. This year I found a cute dress that I knew would make me feel both happy and ready to take on the world of Preschool :) I also always make sure to get up extra early and get myself a Chai. I typically make my own coffee for the school day so this is an extra special treat to brighten my morning and help me slow down and enjoy getting ready for a new year.
Oh! And I always take a "first day photo" to share with my family! They live far away so I never get to see them on the first day of preschool. Here was my photo this year.
Do you have any first day rituals that help you start off on the right foot? Do you enjoy doing special things for your children on the first day of school? Lets hear it!
