Let the mocking begin

Okay it's been a while. Things are crazy around here as we are gearing up for school to start on Wednesday. 10 starts middle school ( yikes) and 6 starts first grade. This year I have a new 'wrench' thrown into the mix......the organic mission!! My children have always brought their lunches to school,but this year will be a little different. So,I've been planning what I'm sending with them for lunch,what I'm planning on baking myself and what I will be buying at the store. Needless to say,that has kept me pretty busy.

Now that I've explained my hiatus,let me explain the title to this entry. Mocking. It happens all the time. Now I'm pretty tough skinned for the most part and can handle some good natured ribbing. Mocking is a different story though. Since I began this blog and this journey,I've had more then one 'friend' mock,ridicule,and shown a general distain for what I'm doing.Why? I'm not really sure the reasoning behind the scorn for what I'm doing. Despite what others think I know in my heart that this is the right thing for my body and my family.The comments just reconfirm my mission and make me feel more stubborn about the whole thing.


So,school starts on Wednesday-my kids will be eating homemade organic bagels for breakfast and lunch will be Tabouli!! Yum! Things are great. Oh yea,coming next week-granola bar recipes!! No high fructose corn syrup here!

  1. Good for you! Many of the people who mock only think that we do what we do to be on some bandwagon. They are simply ignorant, lazy or on their own bandwagon. Many people who mock this way of living were brainwashed (on their own bandwagon) thinking that anyone who buys organic is a tree-hugging liberal baby-killer. Ironic that you are doing everything you can as a mother to give your babies the best nutrition and you're being mocked for that... Have you seen the latest recall on beef?
