Chips for Breakfast


So the bye mommy, I love school phase has officially ended.  JG tells me he just wants school to be over because Im "messin my mama."So this morning I was desperately trying to find something he could eat for breakfast, but all he wanted was "tall chips" aka pringles.  As I attempted to steer him to something else such as bagels, english muffins, cereal, fiber one bars, he just cried that he didnt want to go to school.  Ok, so I stopped and got him some pringles.  As he stuffed them into his mouth like he had not eaten in days, and mama gave him a sip of her coke, I was praying he would just be happy.  And he was, until the pringles can was empty......  Well as I drop him off, the tears start and the my tummy hurts.  Poor baby, I had ridiculous amounts of separation anxiety until I was in college, yes college, and I just hope he hasnt inherited my fears. 
So what did I do next?  Drew some experience from my FUS days, and decided to pray over my baby boy.  As I was holding him I put my hand on his head and just asked the Blessed Mother to give him peace.
So I might not get mother of the year award for feeding my kid pringles for breakfast, but sending him to breakfast without school, I think is the greater of the two evils. As Im sitting here with my little chunker baby drooling all over my arm, I cant help but thank God for all my blessings.

  1. I feel for JG! I cried every day the first year of Kindergarten, thankfully I had a wonderful teacher.
