Hey, everybody, it's Marielle.
I think when you're an adult, it's easy to forget how stressful school can be for kids.
You gotta wake up early, get there on time.
You're not allowed to talk when you wanna talk.
You have to sit and pay attention.
When you're bored, you're getting hit with new information all day long that you're just supposed to remember on top of remembering all the other things that you learned yesterday.
And maybe you're not sure who your friends are.
Maybe some kids aren't very nice to you.
Maybe when you get up to the plate a kickball.
Everybody in the outfield Snickers and moves in because they know you're not a very good kicker.
Maybe you just miss your mom.
And then lunchtime comes.
And yes, lunchtime can be stressful as well, but it's also an opportunity for us to give the kids in our lives a break to remind them that we love them and we're there for them.
Let's make some lunch for my kids today.
I have some white steamed rice and pork adobo.
Today I made filipino style spaghetti.
Today I'm making a kung fu panda.
