[quote=Anonymous]Funny post OP.

What a strange and weird thing to think about OP.

But if you really must know, my kids brought lunch on the first day for several reasons:

1) I wanted to pack them a special first day lunch with extra treats and a little good luck note tucked inside.  Can't stick a note on their lunch tray...

2) Since I have older kids I know that the fcps lunches are not necessarily tasty and also that they come in unreasonably small portions.  My kids have been eating at will all summer so I knew they would be hungry with the meager school lunch so I wanted to make sure they had enough food that they would like to eat rather than small portion school lunches half of which got thrown out.

3)  My older kid has memorized the fcps lunch rotation.  Apparently whatever they usually serve on the first Tuesday of the month is not very good, so he made the decision for himself and his younger sibling that they were NOT buying lunch this Tuesday.  They bought on Wednesday because that day apparently has good lunches the first week of the month.

4) My kids were excited about their new lunch boxes

5) I knew they would be bringing on day one so I did not load the $$ onto their IDs yet.
