‘back to school’ bags

{via}

hey! happy ‘back to school’ week for most of you and your precious children. after about twenty-five years straight of ‘back to school’ for this girl, it feels very weird to not be focusing on lesson plans, decorating my middle school classroom, and preparing for the ‘first day of school jitters’ {the thing is though… i was at the point where i was no longer nervous about a new year}. another reason why i feel like my calling in life is taking me to new places. i strongly believe that change is good. right now, i am at peace with my decision and know that God has a plan and has big things in store for me and my family. the continuous love and support {i am talking hundreds of sweet notes} have meant so much to me. truly. i feel like it was His way of saying… ‘you did what you set out to to do and it’s okay to let go; you did achieve your heart’s calling.’  time for a new chapter in this one life.

{more on this decision here}

in honor, i am sharing some of my favorite ‘back to school’ bags from etsy 

i hope you find one that inspires you | one that you simply love
