Back to school

I wanted to take a picture of pencil shavings for a while, and every time it looked too artificial. This morning, we sharpened my son's pencils for the first day of school after the break, and voila!

I was glad I took this shot especially because of this, Kathryn! @katymac80 Actually, it was taken at 2 am thinking "Oh, it's already a new day, and my next morning is going to be packed, so why don't I just get it over with since I've just sharpened my kid's pencils" - I am glad it is nice a great memory.
And thank you, Susie, Nicole and Lina! @susie1205 @nicoleterheide @lindacarol
