Back to School Subway Art Printable

With summer winding down, back to school is at the forefront of everyone’s mind.  I’m trying to get into the spirit with this Back to School Subway Art Printable. 

Since my children have been in daycare full time, and year-round, since they were just 9 weeks old, ‘back to school’ never seemed like an overly big deal to me… until now – more on that in just a moment.

Ethan will be going to first grade at the public school. Dun, Dun, Dunnnnnn!  No really, it’s a big deal to me. You know how most moms freak out when their kid goes to Kindergarten? I never experienced that, but it’s hitting me big time now! 

Maybe it’s because Ethan has struggled this last year.  Or maybe it’s just because it’s a new school and there are big kids there – giant 5th graders!  

As his mom, I want to both shield him from frustration and empower him to cope and grow.  It’s not always the easiest thing, and more often than not, I feel like I’m waging a battle against protecting my ‘little boy’ and helping to grow into a productive, compassionate, successful ‘big’ boy.  I’ve said it time and again, but I didn’t think parenting got ‘hard’ until the teen years.  Boy was I wrong!

So I’m going to put up my little printable and get excited for a ‘back to school’ and a new year.  For Ethan’s sake.

Parenting

My sister Kacey once said, “When done right way, parenting is not for the weak.”  While she and I have very different parenting styles, that statement is one we can both agree on.  Parenting is hard.
