Lunch Box Quotes

Lunch Box Quotes

I wish I had found the quote for Number 1 two weeks ago! His Subaru had a major oil leak…like keep a case of oil in the car, oil leak, and it was in the shop for a couple of weeks. Oh well. It still made me chuckle. The challenges of this week (at work) got me thinking about this generation of young men and women, and I have to say that I am impressed. For all of the naysayers, I have witnessed grit and determination that gives me hope for our future.

As a reminder, Lunch Box Quotes are notes I include in the kids’ lunches every day. Number 1 gets a text, but 2-4 get handwritten napkins. Today, I am going to have to solicit some help from the wife as she will be writing my notes for the next little while. I can publish, but require a little help on that end.
