"A box full of yummy surprises for my son's graduation"

My youngest son Jonathan is graduating high school in May. This was not an easy task. Jon is ADHD. We hope one day he'll be able to go to a tech school in the future. For spring break he is working 3 days as a laborer. In April he has his first formal which is senior prom. We're renting him a tux and buying his ticket. He has a date so he's saving his money for her ticket, flowers, and dinner for the 2 of them.
Starting in June he'll be working full time as a laborer and at that time he needs to bring his food, water, snacks, etc. to every job site. I would love to be able to give him a box full of items he can pick from to take with him every day. I will wrap up the items I receive in a box as a gift and give it to him on his graduation day from his WUAH friends. I attached a Walmart wish list, but you can send whatever you want. I'm sure he'll be thrilled with anything. Thank you for reading my wish. :o)

This wish has been Granted. Jon received a Walmart gift card from WUAH Foundation on 2-28. He also received cards and gifts from most of the Heros and I thank you ALL for your gifts to help Jon when he starts his new job. He is so excited and so very grateful. Hugs to all the Heros on this site.

You're making me wanna cry :) I bet he looks so great in in tux . Make sure to get LOTS of pics . Time seems to fly doesn't it ? I look at Kyle and ask the same thing " where has the time gone ? " . They grow up so fast ... I hope he has a great night tonight and a safe one . Give him a hug for me !

Thank you so much Donna and Greg (sassy3dh3ad29). Jon is going to be so happy. The days are going by so fast. Today is prom. He looks so handsome in his tux (I cried when he tried it on). I'm so proud of him. Like all Mom's I want him to be happy and to succeed in life. :o)

i pray for him too have a happy life and i know he will:) many prayers too you and yours.

You might notice on the wish list protein bars, beef jerky, etc. Jon was on medication for his ADHD for 10 years. The medication did some damage to his kidneys and gave him tics and also prevented him from keeping a healthy weight. We took him off all medication at age 16 and now he's 17 and has gained weight, and has grown to be 6'2".
