Little Red Riding Hood and the Happy meal...

Patience had a outing with her girl scout troop this morning.They went to a play at  to see Little Riding Hood. It was from money they raised with the Cookie sales.

Anyway after the play they were going to eat out at McDonald the cost of the lunch was included. I had sent extra money for her to be able to get a grilled chicken salad instead of a Happy Meal.

Gosh I wonder how it looked to the other moms. I hope it did not look like we were trying to stand out. I mean I could not see her eating a 300 calorie hamburger, fatty fries, and slurping down a coke.

Patience had no problem eating the Salad...I'm doing the right thing. Regardless of how it looks. I mean if  i sit there and let her eat the silly happy meal who would benefit?
Then other's would have a reason to say thats sad, she is overweight. Her parents should do something.

Sometimes its ok to be different and stand up for what you believe.
