So I have been procrastinating and procrastinating.
A few weeks ago, Jeff got out all of the lunch stuff and sat down with them and they all made their lunches. And the girls loved it! Jeff liked helping them and the lunches got made. By them. And not me. Which I LOVE!
First time making their own lunches! YES!
We seem to have found a convenient time of night to accomplish this task and it is one less thing I have to worry about. I appreciate that Jeff took the time to get this task started and that it is something he will continue to do with the girls. Hopefully soon the girls will be able to carry on this task without our help.
It feels great to have one less thing in the day to worry about!
How wonderful. Especially the fact the Jeff took the initiative to start this with the girls!!
ReplyDeletei totally get your feelings on "it's faster if i do it myself" - so true! and then it gets done the way i want, also! :)
ReplyDeletewonderful to take this next step with the girls and help them learn lunchmaking. bonus that jeff stepped up to the plate! now no complaints that they don't like what's in their lunch, right?!
we always came home for lunch when we were kids, til 7th grade. i guess that is a thing of the past for grade school kids, nowadays, since they have the two health breaks instead.
Dear Tricia,
ReplyDeleteJust thought I would explain the peanut-butter sandwich in the 1st picture. I decided to make MY lunch at the same time. I was careful to avoid any cross-contamination.
Love,
Jeff
