What's in your backpack?

Tonight Jasper and I were making Maddie's lunch for school tomorrow. Jasper pulls her lunch bag out of her backpack...then a barbie, then another barbie, then barbie's bed, complete with bedding, and how could she survive without a lamp? Then some bear winter gloves, then a stuffed dog, oh and a stuffed bear, and finally a polly pocket. No wonder it takes her so long to get out of the car in the morning, she's collecting all of her extremely important school supplies. The girl seriously is an overflowing spirit in a tiny six year old body.

Maddie and Macy - two peas in a pod. Macy tore a hole in her backpack two days after we bought it because she had so much stuff in it. When we went through it, every item was vitally important. How can you not help but adore Madeline!

The barbies must help her with her school work and need a nap at lunch time.

Man, I wish I had had stuff like that in my backpack, instead of all the worthless study materials. Oh, to be young and dependent on your stash of barbies.

This is too funny. Hey- this is totally random- what font is "Maddie's" written in? I love it.

Rachel Clare said...

Oops- I guess it says "Madeline's".

How long did she have this stuff in her backpack? LIke one day, or a few weeks? She must be having a great time at school if she has all that good stuff with her! Maybe she's way popular at school because she shares all her goods.
