Natalie was picked to be in the Kids' Cafe this past Friday (the 13th). There's a stage in their cafeteria. The kids who have behaved in class get to sit on the stage to eat lunch one Friday each month. Each child only gets picked once a year. They can pick someone to eat with them, either someone outside the school (like a relative) or a classmate. Natalie asked Lola one time last year and she's asked me to go before, so she wanted to pick Papa this time. She knew Lola would be here in town though, so she was hoping that Papa would come and bring food that Lola made. :) Patrick had a talk with her and since Lola was visiting, they decided together that Natalie would ask Lola to eat with her.
Lola brought some of this shredded fish that she makes the Natalie loves (and all the other grandkids too, except for Nick). She also brought her some sweet bread, brownies, and juice. Papa was nice enough to get some pictures with his camera phone for me, and Natalie looked so excited when she opened up the lunchbox. These are the little things that the kids really love and I love seeing that excitement.
By the way, doesn't my Mom just look fantastic? She is 72 and I want to be like her when I grow up. Love you, Mom! :)
