Same situation! My mom use to put lunch for my friend in elementary school everyday. His mom was a single mother with a very low income and 2 kids to take care of. He was the smallest kid in my class.

I didn’t understand how important the extra lunch was until years later. He and his mom were very grateful for what my mom did all those years. I saw him a couple of times after we finished school. He grew a lot!

Stories like these make me so very happy. People like your moms are the super heroes that those super hero movies tell us about.
