College Bound

Don’t forget to take drawer and shelf paper when you move your college student into the dorm. The previous occupants may not have been concerned about cleanliness, and opening a drawer to put away underwear only to find a sticky substance in the bottom of the drawer, will only make leaving your precious baby more difficult. So line those drawers and shelves with paper to remind your kid that they have a mom at home who cares.
