Hello everyone,

Today my baby is six years old so I went to school today to have lunch with her...and take cupcakes for her birthday treats.:9

School lunch...it hasn't improved over the ages.

B=wheat toast w/butter, tea, banana
L=breaded chicken patty, baked beans, pear, rice w/cinnamon sugar, chocolate milk.
S...will need to be something really healthy to counteract that lunch!
D=pork chops, broccoli and corn. Menu selected by birthday girl. And of course birthday cake...white layer cake with pink frosting in the middle and blue frosting on outside. I still need to make the blue frosting yet.

Did CXT Power Circuit this morning and will do an Upper body workout this afternoon.

40something -
Ah, your lunch description brings back memories... no, nightmares!... even though my days of school lunches are oh, 20 or so years past. You're right. They haven't changed a bit.

I hope your little girl has a very happy birthday!

Shannon...I lucked out on that school lunch today. It was supposed to be corndogs, which I don't like at all, so I was planning on just eating the fruit and vegetable anyway. So then when my Dd tells me the menu has been changed and now they're having chicken patty...I was actually excited! lol

And thank you for the birthday wishes.

40something - oh, that's just terrible. I can't even imagine. For someone so young to be so upset that he kills himself... I don't know what to say, except I'm sorry, and my prayers are with you.

I work in a hospital, and lately about three doctors and residents have committed suicide - all that training, all that hope they must have had, and all the help they are able to give others, but something made them so unhappy that they didn't want to live.

It's bad enough for an adult... but for a child????

 

[40something]

Shannon, I know it. I can't imagine being driven to take my own life. Like this boy, we've known him since grade school age. I keep thinking of him sitting alone in his room and wondering what were his last thoughts before he did this? Why didn't he reach out to a friend or a family member? Some of the kids at school are saying he was threatening to do this last week but I suppose no one took him seriously, they thought he was just joking around trying to get the girls attention. So sad.

I had deleted that part of my message before, thought it was too much of a downer after I posted it.

Of course the other part of that question is, why didn't anybody notice that he needed someone? When I was that age, my mom always knew when something was wrong, and if it kept on for too long, she'd confront me. It's sad how quickly kids grow up today, so often without adult guidance. I'm glad you're there for your daughter!!!

 

[40something]

I know. You would think...or hope...that someone in this boys life would have been paying some attention. And how many times do we see on the television where a kid had been telling friends he was going to kill himself/herself and eventually did it. But none of the friends told anyone.

Yeah, I sat down with my son last night and we talked about this. I want my kids to know that there are always option's in life and sometimes we just don't get what we want and we have to accept that and move on but if we're having trouble moving on then they need to talk to someone so they can keep things in perspective. I'm waiting for my son to get home from school because I'm sure it's been a awful day at school for everyone.
