Are you or your family thinking about selling your home? How about buying your first home?
When you become a parent, you want to be sure that you have a safe household to live in, so maybe buying a house is an option for you. Or if you are having another child, then maybe it is time to think about selling your home and getting a new one.
However, in today’s market, this can become confusing and with constant ads on TV and radio, you aren’t really sure on who or how to go about doing this.
Let me suggest my good friend Dina Castaglia - licensed Real Estate broker who owns and runs Arcieri Real Estate (http://www.arcierirealestate.com)
She is very knowledgeable about the market and about what fits you and your family. She knows what it means to have a family and how important it is to have a good home.
She also can help you and your family in the process of selling your home. She has many contacts that can assist you in deciding on the best practices there are.
Please contact her and tell her I sent you. Thanks.
Oh yes, it is officially September! Time for your kids to get ready for school! It is funny though that some schools are starting today and some are starting after Labor Day (such as my son’s school E.E. Little School in North Reading).
Are you and your kids ready? If this is their first year of Preschool or Kindergarten, check with your local schools if your children will need a backpack! Yes, even in PreSchool, children are required to have a backpack, and sometimes a lunch too, depending on how your local school does it.
If your child needs a backpack and you haven’t gotten one yet, you can probably get one at Walmart® http://www.walmart.com or Target® http://www.target.com or even L.L.Bean® http://www.llbean.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/LLBSearchDispatch?storeId=1&catalogId=1&langId=-1&init=0&freeText=school (but I think that’s a little extravagant, but hey, why not if you can afford it!)
You can become more involved in your children’s schooling by becoming part of the P.T.A. (Parent’s Teacher Association) or just helping by donating Clorox Wipes and other things that the class might need. (Do check with your kid’s teachers first though!).
I think most teachers will appreciate the extra attention that you give your child(ren) at home, whether it’s their first day or not. Even in High School (mine is not at that age yet, but I know it’s eventually coming) they need certain things, like having access to a computer…yeah, scary isn’t it?!?…
Yes, you should be concerned with their safety, but know that school is a great place for your kids to learn.
Good luck to all your kids going to school this season, and your best to stay involved.
P.S. I do know that some kids are home schooled as well, but I don’t really have too much information on that.
