Today Big brother had a field trip to the Denver Zoo with his class and then his fifth grade buddies class. Today was the first time I packed a lunch for brother (I had to pack all items that could be thrown away since the parent helper would have to carry their group’s lunches). I am not a fan of having to use all that plastic and I would much more prefer to use my PlanetWise bags, however it is what it is. Big brother had a bunch of fun at the zoo. I asked him what his favorite part of going to the zoo and he said splashing in all the puddles. Yep, honest to goodness that was his answer. I knew I was not going to get an earth shattering zoological answer however I did expect more than splashing in the puddles. Oh well, since we frequent the zoo I guess that is about the only part of the zoo he has never partaken in. This momma does not like puddle splashing when there are place to go and things to see. Big brother didn’t even get to wear his pants once he got in my car, I made him take his pants off in the parking lot at school before he got in. His jeans must have weighed a good five pounds, they were soaked from the knees down!
Any how… the first of many more years of packing big brother’s lunch for school!
