When I thought about having children, I knew that there would be a lot of time and money involved in raising them.
I knew that being a mother of five would leave me stretched for time.
I knew that more children meant higher food bills.
I forgot about where having five children would leave me when it came to back-to-school shopping.
Ever tried to find 5 perfect backpacks, 20 plastic folders with brads, and 25 sets of school uniforms that aren't "itchy".
That's what I'll be doing tomorrow.
If you don't hear from me...will someone please come rescue me?
I'll be weeping in the school supply section at Target surrounded by 1 billion bradless folders.

Good luck... you can do it, be brave, be strong!!
Been there, done that, with my 5 and it ain't no picnic. Good luck....you can do it!
Why do they even make a bradless folder? I've never seen a supply list yet that asks for bradless. Yet that's all you can ever find! We must embrace the pocket with brads folders and demand that the stores do away with bradless folders!
/I'll step off my soap box now.
May the force be with you tomorrow and may you also be bountiful in folders with brads. :)
Good luck! I always hated trying to find uniform clothes for my son. Something about them always bothered him. They were too itchy, too stiff, too something. It drove me crazy!
Oh good luck! I will think of you!
