When I was growing up I had an LL Bean backpack that my dad brought back from a business trip for my sister and I. It was red. Each of our backpacks had a letter of the LL Bean logo blacked out with a permanent marker so we could tell them apart. I am pretty sure Elizabeth had the "e" blackened but I can't remember which one I had. Maybe the "B" for Becca or the "a" for the ending letter? I had that beloved backpack from 1st grade through 6th grade until I hit Middle School and needed a newer trendier ESPIRIT bag. I decided to carry on the tradition for Benjamin in hopes that LL Bean would last us through his grade school years. I even got fancy and had his initials embroidered on the back. He even chose red, very fitting in my opinion. He loves it, and so do I! I think I was just as excited about getting it in the mail this week as he was. We also got all of his school supplies ready and filled up the pack. He is excited for kindergarten to start! Now if we could just get the letter from the school telling us which days he goes . . .
