Today Bennett told me he felt sorry for all the kids who get school lunch. He says, and I do not exaggerate, "Mom, I feel so bad for those kids. They don't know how unhealthy all that food is!" Meaning....he hears my constant monologue about needing to make healthy food choices, aka...no high fructose corn syrup, no MSG, humanely raised meat, organic fruit, veggies and milk, yadayadayada and I think some of that stuff might actually be sticking in his little brain.
Evidently his compassion on those poor souls who have to endure the measly portions of unhealthy school food day in and day out couldn't take it any longer. He felt the need to solve this problem of epidemic proportions. This is his solution:
"I know Mom! How about if you get all your friends together and you guys replaced all the lunch ladies at my school. Then I KNOW those kids would finally get to eat good, healthy food. And maybe they'd get full at lunch too."
