Every time Connor asks to take his lunch, I try very hard to talk him out of it. Why? I have no idea. I mean really, it takes a couple of seconds to make his lunch, but the task seems so incredibly daunting. Most times Brad will make it for him anyway, so I really do not have much of an excuse. I guess with all the other bazillion things that we have going on, paying for school lunch just seems to be the best option. <br /><br />I would love to see a breakdown of Connor's purchases. We too get "low balance" statements and I really don't pay attention to how much and how often I am sending lunch money with him (I probably should!) We always send $40 (a number that we have randomly established) with him for lunch money and every so often it seems that this happens pretty close together. A couple of weeks ago, I got an email from the lunch admin saying that Connor was -$10.00. I was pretty confused because the previous week I had sent a check with him. Upon further investigation, we found out that he had put the check in the front pocket of his backpack and forgot to turn it in. He did not even mention that he was eating sunflower butter sandwiches, cheese, and milk for lunch (what they give kids when they are neg. in lunch money.) I guess it did not bother him...gross! Needless to say, we now pay online!Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08527223407227146621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8666915709043738952.post-48386706990812012042012-02-12T02:16:04.225-06:002012-02-12T02:16:04.225-06:00That's truly a classic!
