Best Friends!

[Guest nini]

My 5 year old has a new best friend in her kindergarten class and today was her friend's day to bring in the snack for the class... This very thoughtful and sweet little girl told her parents that she HAD to get a snack that my daughter could have too, so she brought my daughter's most favorite snack in the world, Frito Lay's Funyon's!

It is so heartwarming to see that she has a friend that cares enough to make her feel included! I have sent in a supply of gluten-free snacks that they keep in her classroom for snacktime because most of the time the snacks that are sent in are not gluten-free.

Aww that was so sweet of that little girl. Simple things like that - that people do to show they care really are special.

That is a very nice thing to have in school!

That's so sweet! I love hearing stories like that. I hope Ella is that lucky in school someday!

I hope she's enjoying Kindergarten.

Funyons are gluten free?

Funyons are gluten free?

I'm thinking the same thing. I didn't know Funyons were gluten-free!

[Guest nini]

yup, Funyons are Gluten Free! They are listed on Frito Lay's list of Gluten Free products... Chey never has any problems with them. Of course I don't let her eat them ALL THE TIME because they are junk food, but as a treat they are ok. And, yes, they are gluten free!

My son has a classmate with really severe celiac disease and all of the kids understand it and look out for him. It is the dopey adults that don't get it.

That is so sweet! Kids are awesome......it is so amazing how kids really get it . We went to a new church the last few weeks, and before dh or I could get a word in edgewise to Emmie's teacher, Jack pops his head in and says "She can't have ANY gluten, she has celiac disease!". I just wanted to cry, as much as they try to kill each other at times, they really do look out for one another!

Congrats on the new best friend, and good luck on your kindy adventures!

Thank you! I was telling her Godmother and her Nana the story today and I got all emotional talking about it! I thought it was just so sweet!

Kids are indeed awesome!

That is a really cute story. Hopefully your daughter will always find friends like the one she has now in kindergarten.

That is so wonderful! It's this generation that is going to make Celiac disease well known and easy to deal with! Three Cheers for those children!
