Today is a very exciting day in the lives of the Manchester Park Elementary Kindergartners! Today they get to practice eating lunch at school.  This is important stuff!  They have to learn where the lunch room is, where to sit, how to go through the line, how to pay for hot lunch…you know…serious stuff for grade schoolers!   Reece chose to bring her lunch so I guess she won’t be learning very much!  If she’s like her brothers, she’ll be bringing her lunch every day and frantically stuffing her bag in the morning full of chips, brownies, and any other unealthy pre-packaged snack she can scrounge up.  I pack their lunches but I know they go back and add in extra stuff that I don’t approve of.  I’m smarter than I look, boys…

Reece, I’m so excited for you today but this also means we are one step closer to sending you off to 1st grade all day.  This is not going to go well for me as Brian reminded me this morning that we’ve had a child at home for the last 13 years!
