We hope they use them when those same 1st graders wear their cap and gown 12 years later!https://www.blogger.com/profile/07627395326943371139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5984202671659312324.post-70381491023593657032010-08-12T11:21:01.166-07:002010-08-12T11:21:01.166-07:00OH, best idea i've read all week!!

It got so popular that we now have a muffin/coffee/juice thing at our school. We call it Tears and Cheers and the PTA has cute kleenex packets for the moms (and a few dads) that has a cute little saying about little hands in big hands on it. It makes it nice that the parents can go into our community room at school after that firs(hard, dreadful tear filled) drop off and not have to abruptly leave the school. They get to socialize with other moms who are experiencing the same thing. My baby goes to kindergarten this year too!! :-)Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18361820502332873873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5984202671659312324.post-7661394709288099062009-07-28T12:00:00.615-07:002009-07-28T12:00:00.615-07:00Anjeanette,

Many of the other moms, that I now call friends have made this a tradition too. Unfortunately our only coffee shop/restaurant for breakfast is now closed. So I don't know what to do when school starts. It was always super informal before, maybe I'll have to invite some moms over to my house instead.Tabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11839436700914050580noreply@blogger.com
