Dear iPod, I think you'll have to wait.

It’s that time again…School Supply Shopping!

Yesterday I got the kid’s supply list in the mail. I compiled them together so it would make for easier shopping. I almost wished that I didn’t because it’s a bit overwhelming.

Four kids in school.

Four kids needing school supplies.

Here’s the List:

4 backpacks
4 lunch boxes
1 kindergarten mat
1 small blanket and pillow
4 school boxes
4 scissors
5 boxes of crayons 24 count
4 boxes of washable markers 10-12 count
20 pocket folders no brads
3 pkg. pencil topers
3 pkg. colored construction paper 8 ½ by 11
2 pkg. colored construction paper 9 by 12
1 pkg. manila paper 8 ½ by 11
2 pkg. large manila paper
1 box of play-doh 4 colors
7 boxes #2 pencils 10-12
3 small elmer’s glue
8 glue sticks
1 box of poster paint 8-10 count
13 boxes of Kleenex
12 boxes of wet wipes (refills okay)
4 bottles of hand sanitizer
3 rulers 12 inches must have inches and centimeters
9 spiral notebooks wide ruled
6 big erasers
2 white board markers
8 pkg. wide ruled notebook paper
5 red grading pens
8 black or blue pens erasable
1 three ring binder
2 pkg. map colors
2 KJV Bible
4 highlighters

A few of these things I have from last year…like the lunch boxes and scissors, but most of it has to be bought. I called my Mom today and asked if she wanted to “sponsor a child.” She said she would take one of the kids shopping. Maybe my mother in law will do one as well.

I guess I can postpone my previous post until these other things are paid for.
