The dad is pulling the shopping cart around the store, dancing to "It's the MOST WONDERFUL TIIIME of the year!" and the kids are sulking. I love it. You deserve chips. Awes.

The inabiblity to eat lunch on THEIR (the schools) schedule rather than their (the kids) own. Last year, when my son started Kindergarten, I decided I was going to let him buy lunch. I NEVER got to buy lunch as a kid and I really burned my bootay. I wasn't gonna have MY kid go through that... 2 weeks later he was begging for me to pack him a lunch. I was thinking to myself, what the... ?!?!?!? I got indignant and told him he would continue to BUY his lunch. After another 2 weeks we had the SAME conversation... I finally asked why. His reply "I don't have time to eat when I buy lunch, Mommah. By the time I get through the line its time to clean up and go to class again." I felt lower than spit on the belly of a slug oozing down the street. He now takes his lunch. Ahhh yes. The inabiblity to eat lunch on THEIR (the schools) schedule rather than their (the kids) own.

I have a under-the-table-hiding-and-screaming kid. It comes and goes. This summer he took summer school classes for his talented and gifted program. The teacher told me she has one every summer. Probably just a sign of genius Monkey old boy. Daisy,
I think I love you.

I needed to see the light at the end of my own personal Tunnel. My 10 month old isn't NEAR going to school and often, I wonder why I get little done during the day. It IS hard to concentrate while someone is perched at your knees. Thank you. I needed to see the light at the end of my own personal Tunnel.
