The summer has just flown by! My 7 y.o. starts second grade at a new school today and my 4 y.o. starts her first day of preschool on Wednesday. Although I am very nervous about all the big changes happening at once, I anticipate that this year will be a good year for both of them.
This first week back to school is always the hardest. After a long break, it’s difficult getting back into routine, but it’s going to be particularly hard on me. I am going to miss my girls! As I packed Allana’s backpack last night, I packed my camera and some tissues in my purse just to be prepared for the waterworks from mom.
To shake my melancholy mood away and get us moving and grooving again, I thought the Jackson 5’s ABC would help lift my spirits and my children out of bed to get ready to go back to school this morning.

Well if a song as lively as this one doesn’t get everyone rockin’ ready for school, I don’t know what will!
Great choice for the first day back!

What a great song to start the school year with! Good luck to your girls. My middle child starts pre-school this year too, but not until Sep. 8th. My oldest is in 7th grade already. But I’ll still have my two boys at home with me.

MJ is very cute here and there were songs he sang later in which I thought he was still a kid
P.S. That’s sweet of you and your sister to try to serenade your parents with wine glasses.
