Last year, I did this crazy thing where I brought my son Kyle home from school for lunch every day. I cringe just thinking about it. It was a pain in the a$# getting three boys, four years and under, dressed, out the door, walking 15 back and forth to school (twice),\u00a0eating a a meal quickly and having almost no time to relax or play. The whole experience was stressful and exhausting. Not to mention, Nate, my youngest, was a newborn. Like, really, really newborn! He was born two days before Kyle started school. Lunch time was also during Ryan’s nap which meant that he would be interrupted or go down late. Add in the chaos of winter, and I was on the verge of tears on a daily basis.<\/p>\n
