Today's lunch is quite important.
Lilly's been having trouble at school with two bullies.
Two BOY bullies.
I anticipated this problem somewhat, but in all honesty,
I never expected BOY bullies.
We're addressing the issue and hoping we can navigate
through the muddy waters of elementary school
bullying, but in the meantime, I've talked
to Lilly about it in a way that makes her feel better.
She draws A LOT.
She draws series' of artwork, her favorite being
"Pink Ninja Art".
She draws herself as a pink ninja. :)
To quote Lilly on the pink ninja's qualities:
"She's strong, but kind and she always helps people.
She doesn't let anyone be mean to her, but sometimes she
falls for practical jokes because she's new to the ninja academy."
This is one of her drawings.
We have an entire folder of these drawings at home,
but each one is fantastic in its own way.
I wanted to remind her to be strong, but kind with today's lunch.
PB&Strawberry jelly sandwich
Two strawberry Pocky sticks
Dried strawberries
Reduced fat colby cheese
Vanilla Chobani Greek yogurt with lots of sprinkles
Strawberry Yoohoo powder for her milk
☺
I included a blank Lunchbox Love note that I'd
written a little reminder to channel her inner Pink Ninja.
Oh and the little purple thing on the corner of her sandwich is
an illustration of a glitch in a video game.
Lilly LOVES gaming and she especially likes to find
glitches in the gameplay.
She said she finds things that aren't supposed to exist to be very interesting. :)
