I went and had lunch with my stepson at school. I wasn’t sure I was going to go especially after I saw what they were having for lunch – chalupa or cheese crisp. lol It was as awful as I thought it would be. But the smile my ss gave me when we saw me made me feel like a million bucks.

He waited for me at the lunch door and then walked me in. He walked me through how it works and where the salad bar was – again not much to choose from. Surprisingly my ss chose quite a few carrots. We sat down among at least a hundred other kids and they proceeded to talk my hear off. It was great. My ss just sat there with this silly grin on his face. He was so cute. One girl gave him half her cookie. How sweet. Told me all about the two teachers who help out during lunch. The big day that the entire fourth grade got a card for some kids talking during lunch and they all got in trouble. Obviously made an impact because I thought all the kids were really good. Shock! There was a few boys who blew their bags up and popped them and then had to stay during recess.

I am so glad I went. It was great to be the fun mom, the good mom and the happy mom with the happy kid.
