Mmmmm. . . Delicious!

Today, I had the best lunch I've ever had. It wasn't anything from a restaurant. I had a Hot Pocket, Macaroni and Cheese crackers, a string cheese, chocolate pudding, and a plum. Why did it taste so good? It was packed by my little boy!!
I was getting ready this morning, and felt really sad that I couldn't stop to watch Elmo's World with Ben. I was running late! Ben said, "What do you need to do, Mom?"
"Well, I need to finish my hair and makeup, and pack a lunch, and then go."
"I can do that!" Ben said, and left the bathroom.
I assumed he went back to watch Curious George, which had just started.
When I finished my hair and makeup, I walked into the kitchen to see Ben on the floor, with his favorite kind of cheesy crackers. He was packing up his own favorite crackers for my lunch! When he finished, I had put in a hot pocket and a plum, and Ben asked, "What else do you want in your lunch, Mom?"
"Well, a string cheese would be good."
"I can get that!" and in went the string cheese. "What else do you want in your lunch?"
"How about a pudding?"
"I can get that!" and in went the pudding.

And so, thanks to the help of my little boy, I couldn't help but smile as I ate my lunch!
