I'm Just Sayin'

...that Back to School can be a whole ton of fun with moxie fab yummies like these from Kate's Paperie:

I know, right?

Now friends, I know that you're expecting a new challenge today. Thing is, in the meantime, I've got my own back-to-school festivities going on. Soon I'll be taking my daughter, Nicole, to Toronto to start graduate school, and I'm not gonna lie, it's pretty much consuming me. So how 'bout this? You make a paper crafted project inspired by anything you see here today, you post it to your blog or this Flickr group, then you link it up below, and all y'all cheer one another on? I'm sure I'll pop by your blogs from time to time and say hello, but how 'bout we do this one just because? (In fact, that should be the name of it, dontchatink? The Just Because Challenge That Isn't Really a Challenge Challenge.) ;)

And no worries, I'll be here in the Moxie Fab World as per usual, I just need to take a quick break from the challenges and on Thursday, September 9, I'll be back with yet another moxie fab challenge for you to rock!

I'm just sayin',

Good luck to your daughter as she embarks on a new and exciting journey! School starts for me (I'm a middle school teacher) as well, and shopping for supplies is quite fun, no matter what the age! ;-)

I hope you have a great time with your daughter...what an exciting time for both of you!!! Thanks for the great challenge...I enjoyed looking through the great site...such cool stuff!!!

I know exactly what you are going through. My daughter and I parted company when she went to college and I moved to another state. It has taken a long time to get accustom to the separation, but that is all part of the "growing up and leaving the nest" process. You will survive, Mom. Trust in the great job you have done raising her...she won't disappoint!
