Today I dropped my grandbabies off at school because mommy and daddy are away and I'm helping out. They were up early, had breakfast with me, left the house with fresh fruit and a lunchbox with food we know they love and will gladly eat, with little to no waste. Just as my daughter did her whole childhood... I just don't get it... and I guess I never will. I pray my grandbabies grow up and have breakfast at home and a lunch they enjoy without depending on taxpayers to feed them. It's hard work, which is why parents dump them off on someone else... it's not the money, but so many simply make no effort. The more that's “free” the less parents do... so depressing.

I made hot breakfast for my kids every day before school, it varied every day from eggs to French toast to oatmeal or another hot cereal, all cooked on top of the stove, not in the microwave or toaster. I don’t exaggerate. They never ate cold cereal because I never bought it. While they ate breakfast, I packed their lunches which was usually a sandwich, chips, cookies and a piece of fruit or carrots if I had them. My mornings were busy.
