School Events: Feeling Helpful is So Good.

Today I had a very exhausting day but very grateful. Once I am jobless I am available for activities I was not before like helping with school activities.
This week is Europe Week and my kids schools decided to make this week a European week. I was invited by my daughter’ preschool teacher to participate in the event through selling traditional food from Belgium. Each classroom represented a Country so we gathered a wide variety of traditional food from several European countries.
The main school, which has students from 5th to the 9th grade, was also visited from Basic level schools and preschool. You can imagine the number of students we had to deal with.
I was there from 10am until 4pm selling waffles and fried potatoes from Belgium. It was a little messy, specially while putting chocolate and strawberry jelly on the waffles while hungry kids were waiting for them.
OF COURSE…I forgot my camera at home so, no photos taken by me. Shame on me!!
I left the event quite tired but really happy for being able to help by serving the school. I enjoy being a present and participative mother on my kids events.
