AAAAHHHH!! Miss ZB starts preschool soon. Very soon. This is not okay because it means she is growing up too dang fast! Doesn't everyone say that about their kids though? I remember when people would tell me that all the time when ZB was a baby and I would always just think to myself "Whatever. It's not that fast." I was so wrong about that. It seems like just yesterday I was watching her try to roll over on our living room floor and now she can do somersaults and she's got some sassy dance moves. Too fast, I tell you.
While I may be sad that she is growing up, I am definitely not sad about having a teacher and a class of 8 kids to craft for! Is it weird that I'm already dreaming of Halloween and what I'm going to do for her class party? Yeah, I thought so. Really, I blame
Pinterest. It is a mecca for over-planning freaks like me.
Inspired by
this post on Nothing But Country, via Pinterest, I made a little first day of school treat for ZB's teacher, Miss Barb.
I'm
super cheap frugal and since I only needed one fish and my printer is not fancy, I just used a piece of tracing paper to trace the fish from NBC's printable (is that wrong? hmm. something to ponder.). Then I cut the fish out and traced around it on a piece of Goldfish-colored paper. Finished it up with "Miss Barb, I am o-FISH-ally excited to be in your class this year! Love, ZB", hole punched it and tied it to a bag of Goldfish crackers. I'm planning attaching a note from me letting Miss Barb know that I am dying to be as involved as possible, so please use and abuse me as needed. Except it will be sweeter.
Coming soon: pictures from our playgroup's "School Celebration" party!
