Throughout the years  ~  there have been many many changes ~  every where you look  ~ But right now ~Today~  i  am  thinking back~  to when i was a child  ~ going to school  ~ This very exciting time of year~

  Going with mom  to get some new  *duds*  to wear to school  ~   getting new scribblers and pencils  ~  I even remember the~** book covers**~  that we got free at the corner durgstore  ~  to cover our books to keep them from wearing  to fast~

   Yes~  getting  cod liver pills~  at school~ which we carried home carefully ~ Meeting the teacher  for the first time  ~   That time was precious but went by so quickly~ Then came the time ~that our own children~ went the same road   ~Only there were some significant  changes   ~ There was a lot of things that were available then that werent around when we were   in school ~ Wow  today   ~ There are **huge changes ** ~ Every child  ~ almost~ goes to school ~carrying a laptop ~  Expensive  brand name clothes   ~and it must cost a fortune ~to be able to attend school now a days  ~ 

 Its totally understandable  that both parents *MUST*  work   in order  to pay for all these things  ~ This is one time~   that i am so glad ~that i am at the place  that where we are today  ~  Retired  ~ Been there  Done that  ~ Our penance was paid  ~ *S*
