We love buying school supplies! Seems I can't go near Barnes and Noble
without dropping a bundle of money. Or a World of Science store! Even the
regular stuff-nothing like getting crayons and markers and all on sale at
Walmart. I came home with over 3000 sheets of paper which is one of those
extremely secure feelings to me-like having your cupboards stocked with
food. Its more fun now cause I don't have to waste my money on the *cool*
notebooks or bookbags.

P.S. I love your little ones ideas!!

How do you ever keep track? It seems like every time we get lots of books,
we end up making a significant "donation" to the library book fund when we
can't find a couple of them. Invariably something gets mixed up in our own
stash at home and we don't find it for months! By then it's too late to make
good at the library.
