What have I NOT done lately

AHHH Post that's it.

Not that I have a large loyal following, but this is my place to discuss.

There is not too much going on. Second grade is trying. Not on my son noooo, he loves it. The teacher & I had a small disagreement. I sent Bud to school with $20 to give to the lunch lady for 2 1/2 weeks of lunches. I said "Bud, keep this in your pocket and when you get to the lunch lady please give it to her". He did. Well, the lunch lady told the teacher and at open house the teacher comes up to me and asked "why would you send $20 to school with Bud?". I kind of shrugged it off and said "for lunch" she answered me in a surprised tone saying "that is what he said" Well Duuhhhh .
Anyways, she went on to imply that it was too much responsibility for a child to take that to school.
Keep in mind Bud is not like my brother and I were. You gave us $5 and we were waving it in each others face saying look what I got and you don't. So while she was on her soapbox just about to tell me I was irresponsible I interrupted her and said "I trust my son that when I give him money to give to someone he will do it". If he looses it that is my fault not his. I did not make a big deal of it to Bud. I finished up by really sending the message home I said "I TRUST HIM." Does that make me a bad mom? I don't think so. Like I said before, if he lost it it is my problem. I did mention to Bud that I trust him and that he may not realize that he did something to completely earn my trust. He said he felt good about it. and that it was not that big of a deal.

LET"S GO JETS! I know its too early in the season, but 3-0 already is OK with me.

Enjoy life.
