We still don’t know for sure where he is headed, although we have a front runner that I’d say we are about 95% committed to. Therefore, I am still stocking him up with things he could use at any school and in any sort of living accommodations. He actually picked out each of these items so it was quite easy for me this month!
Backpack
He’s used and abused the same backpack for the duration of high school so I thought it was completely fair to ask for a new one to take off to college. He researched on his own and settled on this Backpack. After reading through the description and reviews, I think it was a great choice!
- Lots of storage and pockets
- Slides over roller bag handle
- USB port
- Water resistant
- Laptop sleeve
- Hidden pocket
Toiletry Bag
This Personalized Toiletry Bag was another goodie picked by John himself. His note to me said to PLEASE GET A NORMAL MONOGRAM. It turned out rather large, but he didn’t bat an eye. :-)
Cooler Backpack
Like the other two, this Cooler Backpack was picked out by the kiddo. Certainly he plans to transport bottled water in it to stay hydrated at all times. Certainly.
As soon as the calendar rolled over to 2024 I was nearly ill thinking about how many changes we have ahead. It’s exciting and he is SO HAPPY that I can’t help but be happy, too.
