My Lunch with Stella

I took advantage of Ommy and Poppa's presence by going to have lunch with my Stella yesterday (3/16) for the very first time.  It was pizza day and I thought I was going to purchase pizza along with Stella to eat but after looking at the pizza, I changed my mind =;) 
Unfortunately, my lunch with her didn't go so well.  She and I had a battle about eating lunch because Stella was wasting time and not eating due to her top center loose tooth.  She didn't want to bite with it.  And by the time she stood in line and got her lunch, she only had 15 minutes to eat before lunch period was over.  So I was urging her to eat and not dilly dally, but she didn't like that and was getting upset with me. 
When lunch was over, I walked her back to her classroom and when I got ready to leave, she started bawling her eyes out because she didn't want me to leave.  She wanted me to stay with her in the class and watch her do things for the rest of the day. I stayed and talked with her for awhile to calm her down and soothe her but she still cried when I finally left.  It was hard for me to see her crying while I walked out of the classroom.
But another mom of one of Stella's classmates (who was in the classroom at the same time and left shortly after I did) told me that once I left, she was fine and stopped crying.  She called it "mama drama."
