Lunch Lesson Learned

Be very clear when giving directions to your 5 year old.

One day last week Carter took his lunch to school, when he came home I unpacked his lunch bag and noticed it was empty.  I asked if he had eaten everything.  He said he didn't have time to eat it all so he just threw it away. I told him if he didn't have time to eat it all to put what was uneaten back into his lunch bag and bring it home.

Result, last night when I opened his lunch bag I found a half drunk juice box and a half eaten cup of applesauce, AND a big mess.

As I unpacked the bag with a confused look on my face, Nate begins to giggle and then I realized, he did exactly what I had asked.

Well, chalk it up to another lesson learned and another good laugh.
