New school means new volunteer position.
As some of you might recall, I served as the Box Top Mom at Beernut’s and Poppyseed’s school for a few years and enjoyed the opportunity to assist the school. Over the years, there were some who suggested that my talents were being wasted. However, it was a worthy project AND was something that I could fit around my unconventional hours.
Now, my hours are dictated by bus drop-off times and preschool pick-up. Leaving me a bit more freedom. And time.
Would it surprise you that I am the newest library volunteer at Poppyseed’s school??
Nah…didn’t think so.
{{BTW, we are still a devout Box Top family. With THREE schools to support.}}

What a perfect poisition! I hope your love for books and reading will inspire the kids.
Thanks!!! I had such a great time today making recommendations and reshelving books!
Sounds like a good fit. Do you get to interact with, and read stories to, the kids as well as shelve the books?
Yes, although it was a little daunting as the kids arrived about ten minutes into my orientation. Fortunately I am well-acquainted with Mr. Dewey. I bet that kid never heard Transformers: Meet the Decepticons with so much inflection.
The BEST job for you!
Isn’t it though???
