We're on our second child going through pre-school yet somehow or another I had never taken the opportunity serve a turn as a class parent helper. Well that all changed last week as I was the designated "Parent Helper" for my daughter's nursery school class at Plymouth Congregational Church. Our son had attended another program where the opportunity did not exist for parents to assist as "helpers" but upon enrolling our daughter Lena at Plymouth last year we discovered that they encouraged active participation by parents in the classroom on a regular basis.

Well, it isn't exactly new, it opened last year in June. But Tuesday was the first day I could connive someone into springing for my lunch. Dave Tapp of Iowa News Brokerage was the willing participant who so generously extended the offer to meet me for lunch at a place of my choosing. Thanks Dave! I chose La Hacienda because it's close to my house and I drive by it everyday. Also I was eager to see what the owner Gustavo Perez had done with the Baker's Square space.
