Monday is back to school in Belgium. You would never guess that
if you were to stop by our house.
We have not yet bought a single school supply or new school
clothes. (the kids have to wear navy on the bottom, with either a light blue
and white shirt).
Back in June when the school closed they sent a list of what to
buy for the next school year home along with every school report. So I have
Tiger’s list lying on top of the microwave.
Cat on the other hand managed to convince us that there
was some sort of a glitch and she didn’t get her report card. So imagine
my surprise when I found said report card in the bottom of a toy chest while
they were in South Africa.
But in her attempt to hide the report card she lost the list. And let me tell
you, these list are so specific that you can’t just do a general shop and hope
for the best.
No panic, I’ll just ring her best friend’s mom to hear if
I could have a copy of Emily’s list. Magali didn’t know where the list was. So
I tried Ema’s mom, same story. Jemima’s mom, she could remember seeing the list
but that was in the beginning of the vacation and now she had no idea where.
As of right now I have still not managed to find a copy of
the list or another mom who knew where her child’s list was. And they
don’t have a list on the school’s web page either.
I’m just very glad that I am not the only disorganized mother
out there who is going to have to go shopping over the weekend.
