It's Back To School! Ready To Roll!

Two months of Summer vacation is over and it's time again to wake up early in the morning to prepare kids for school. Today is my kids' first day of school as most of the schools has the same schedule of opening the SY 2014-2015 while others started last week just as my first son who is in his 2nd year of College.

We've done buying their school supplies last month but just bought their bags yesterday in SM Dasmarinas. I realized that my kids' were not younger anymore that I used to hold their minds and let me decide on what bags should I buy for them that wont hurt my pocket. Now, they have chosen the bags they want, for me it is pricey when the price is more than P500  hehehe. So i just give them P1k budget for each bag.

My kids' chosen bags for SY 2014-2015

Here's what they got! 

The two toned blue and black hawk knapsack is for my eldest son. It cost P999. We tested hawk bag durability when we purchased their first hawk bags when he was in First year HS and his brother in 5th grade (now in 4th year). It's still in good shape but my kids find its too big for school use. My adolescent kids balances their bags and fashion trends. Good thing in this brand, is that they offer lifetime warranty for their bags with minor defect such as broken zipper.

The one in the middle is a Nike printed backpack for my second son which is in 4th year HS. Though he has a lot of books to bring in school, he picked this one. He would have locker anyway. This one cost P1499 and most pricey among three. I allowed him to get this one though the price is over the budget I allocate for each of them because his younger brother spent less for his bag.

I was glad when my youngest son which is in 4th grade picked his bag. Not a trolley this time! Oh! is this a sign that he's no longer small? Well, just accept the fact that they will never remain small at all. It's just that time flies so quick that he's growing too fast just like his big bros! 

He was attracted with the color of neon green, maybe it is a trend color that he saw for rubber shoes. This bag made his first day of school more exciting :) The cheapest price among --P599 only! Plus an attache case to put in his books, worth P169.

I realized that when kids have the things they want especially for school, going to school made them more interesting and exciting. It's not how much the things cost but teach them to value the things they have and build their confidence not on the things they have but in the Lord. What important is they have what they need for school.

MAY SCHOOL YEAR 2014-2015 BE A YEAR OF MORE BLESSINGS OF KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING FOR THE STUDENTS AND TEACHERS AS WELL :)
