Today Ri and went to the park w/ a small contingent of her friends. While we were there having a nice time (until she told two of her friends "I don't like you"- sigh... another blog post) my cell phone rang.
It went like this:
Me: Hello.
Teacher: Hi. Is this Ali?
Me: Yes.
Teacher: This is Mrs. K- Jack's teacher.
Me: OMG- is he ok? (heart racing- worried sick he's hurt or something)
Teacher: Yes- he's ok. Just wanted to let you know what happened at lunch today.
Me: ok....
Teacher: Jack got upset at lunch today b/c he didn't like any of the food the cafeteria was serving (cheese sticks and turkey tetrazinni - GROSSSS) and was really hungry. Just wanted to let you know that I got him calmed down and found his water and snack that you sent it and he seems better. I don't know him that well yet and wasn't sure this was normal or not. Just wanted to let you know.
Me: (I go on to explain to Mrs. K that Jack is most likely exhausted from practice Monday night, game last night, eats like a horse and gets cranky as all get out if he doesn't have any food in him.)
Teacher: That's what I thought- the kids are all cranky and whiny and one threw up today. This always happens- it's a big adjustment for them. Jack is a great kid and has been doing wonderful. I really enjoy him.
Me: Yes- we'll have to send in lunch the next few days to make sure he gets enough food.

Argh- she texted me after he got back from the computer lab and he seemed better. Needless to say I have a HUGE snack waiting for him when he gets off the bus. Speaking of that- I need to go get him
Until next time....
