Happy Saturday!!! It’s the last weekend of summer for me… I go back to school on Wednesday! As always, I’m sad to see summer come to a close, but I’m excited for another new school year and looking forward to being back in a routine. (I’m also really going to work on getting my blogging game back on!) Anyway, we’re hoping to spend some good time outside as a family (maybe at the lake) and plenty of time in our pjs today and tomorrow… If you’re still enjoying some quiet downtime, here are my favorite links & likes for your browsing pleasure…
Links:
“A Mother’s Body” – I love what her reader had to say about seeing her own traits on her daughter and finding them beautiful. So good.
“Truth for You and Your Student in the New School Year” – I wish I could print this out and give it to all my students.
“As Far as Your Brain Is Concerned, Audiobooks are Not ‘Cheating'” – good thing since this is how I “read” most of my books these days
“Handling Infertility & Miscarriage while Teaching” – SUCH an important topic, and something I’ve really not seen written about before…
“World Class Moms: Meet the 10 Mothers on the US Olympic Team” – talk about working mom power!!!

Have you heard of Sonnet James dresses? I seriously want one of each.
I bought a sheet of these custom name labels from Minted at the beginning of the summer and put them on all our pool toys, water bottles, etc. They’ve been great and would be perfect for school supplies, lunch boxes, even clothes this time of year.
Speaking of school supplies, I just adore May Designs’ new teacher planners. I’ve never really used a paper lesson-planner, but this is seriously tempting me to try it!!
Just when I thought I had enough gingham to last me a while… This sweater shows up in my life. 😉
Lara Casey’s PowerSheets AND Make It Happen Binder are on (MAJOR) sale at Brickyard Buffalo this week for $30.00 (normally more than $50). The start of a new school year is like January 1st for so many of us, so now is a GREAT time to set some goals and make a plan!! *I already have these (and paid full price), or I’d totally be snagging up this deal!!
Finally, yesterday’s Fashion Friday deal at Cents of Style was all about BOOKS! Three awesome book-themed t-shirts – including “Readers Gonna Read” and the awesome English-teacher “More Books Less Selfies” styles shown above – are 50% off (only $14.98) with FREE SHIPPING and they’re throwing in the four printable bookmarks shown below (emailed after purchase) that would be great to use in your classroom. I just bought the selfie one!!! Click here to buy and use code BOOKIT to claim the deal!
Have a great weekend friends!!!
