that favourite pencil case

pencil zipper pouch by allisa jacobs

............

did you ever have a favourite pencil case?

a favourite backpack or lunchbox or glittery pen that you  cherished, perhaps cherish fondly still as part of your schooldays?

my forever-loved-shortlist of school supplies would have to include: mr. sketch smelly markers + a well loved red + turquoise canvas zipper pencil case, that, over the years, was covered with friends' signatures, goofy doodles, you know the scene.

*sigh*

today little rikrak headed off to his new school.

me: nostalgic, excited, photograph-ee, teary-eyed.

him: excited, thrilled to meet new friends, his already favourite pencil case tucked into his backpack along with sharp new pencil crayons, way-too-much lunch and enough school supplies to fill 2 desks. 

hope him + that pencil case have such a great great day.

and you? 

have a favourite school supply you still think fondly of?

back-to-school tales at your home these days?

here's to a great year ahead for all our little ones.

{and big hugs to the mommies + daddies waving goodbye for the day ... GOOD GOLLY.. i was a FONT-o-tears! }

fun handmade school supplies!
