Growing Up! (Buckhead Betties Backpacks)

Raising four boys definitely was different than being an only child girl!  My husband came from a family of four boys and he thinks the life we live is NORMAL!! LOL!!  There is nothing NORMAL about living with a house full of males! LOL!!  We now have two Grandsons and they are absolutely AWESOME!  Males may be a challenge to live with, especially if you are the only female in the house, but I certainly wouldn't have traded it.  Since I have spent the last 28 years shopping for Boy/Male stuff, I enjoy looking at the cute Girl things!
I know from my friends daughters, that they quickly outgrow those 'cute' little girl things and want to look 'all grown up' way too fast.  If your daughter thinks she is too old for a cute 'little' girl backpack, check out our Buckhead Betties line.

Help you child want to go back to school! (Stephen Joseph Backpacks)

Stephen Joseph Race Car Signature Quilted Backpack

As I have said in many of my blogs, time just goes by too fast!  In May, our youngest of four sons graduated from High School.  In June, he was drafted by the New York Yankees.  In July he flew to Tampa, Florida, signed his first professional baseball contract, and began playing baseball with the Yankees.  It seems like only a few short years ago, we took him to Kindergarten and now he is living his dream.

Some of the best advice that I can share from raising our four boys is that parents should enjoy all of the time that they have with their children, because they certainly grow up too fast! I remember those days when the baby was crying, one of them needed a drink RIGHT NOW, and the other two were getting out all of the toys that we had just picked up.  Another piece of parenting advice would be that 'those are the easy days'!  All too quickly, they are out of the baby stage, don't need your help getting a drink, and their toys have keys and motors that start them!  Your prayers quickly change 'from help me to survive this day' to 'help them survive growing up'!  At this stage, you think that you are 'almost there' as a parent.  Somewhere along the line, we believe that the hard part of parenting is over when they graduate from High School.  No one ever tells us how hard parenting gets after the age of 18.  At this point, they usually move out of our house either for college or a job, make friends that we have no way of  checking their background on, meet the right or wrong significant other, and many other life affecting things that we have no control over!  Although parenting gets tougher the older they get, it is the most rewarding job ever!  It is awesome to watch them grow into great young men or women!

Whatever age your kids are, take time to enjoy parenting!  Days go by too fast!  If you are one of the lucky parents whose children haven't started the new school year yet, take advantage of the days you have left with them at home.  Housework will wait!  If they haven't started back to school yet, you still have time to order a special backpack from thecrazydazy.com.  There are so many great backpacks, matching lunch boxes, water bottles, and much more.  Check out our Stephen Joseph line of products.  They are sure to help your child get excited about going back to school.  The more excited they are, the easier the transition will be for both of you.   Have fun and make these days special
