What Does Colton's Teacher Think...

Not only was it bad enough to send Colton to school without a snack for his party at school, but we have had another incident that is making me wonder what in the world his teacher is thinking about my mothering skills. Yesterday morning I told Colton he had to eat school lunch because we didn't have any bread because we got home from Utah Sunday night and I didn't want to have to break the Sabbath. Colton reluctantly agreed that he would eat school lunch. Well, he said he was hungry still when he was walking out to catch his morning bus, so I sent him with a small pack of Teddy Graham crackers to eat while he waited for the bus. Well he got home from school yesterday and started to tell me that he told his teacher he brought his lunch from home and would not be buying school lunch. So, as his class was walking down to the lunch room, he pulls out his half eaten pack of Teddy Grahams. His teacher asked him if that was all his mom packed him for lunch and he said yes. She then proceeded to tell Colton that he had to buy hot lunch because that wasn't enough lunch for him. Yes, I am completely mortified. What does she think of me. Does she actually believe that is all I would send him to eat for lunch? Oh well, hopefully next time I am at the school I can explain the real situation to her.
