The holidays are over! School is back in session! Yay!
Well, that’s what I thought anyway. I woke up 10 minutes before my alarm went off today. Check my phone. Yep, today is Monday. Mentally run through my to-do list for the day.
Excited to get back to my usual morning routine and ready to conquer the day, I rolled out of bed and turned on the shower.
My daughter had already explained how she wanted to eat breakfast at home, so she had more time to play in the morning before school. She is NOT getting in the car without her breakfast today. Crap.
Luckily, breakfast just got a whole lot easier! I had a brand new box of BelVita Bites Breakfast Biscuits. The chocolate ones too!
Individually wrapped for on-the-go convenience, each serving of these delicious mini biscuits provide four hours of nutritious steady energy. You can enjoy them straight from the package or as a yogurt topper with a serving of fruit, like we did!
Breakfast is done! Backpack was done the night before. Sock and shoes went on without any major meltdowns. And her jacket is by the door, exactly where it should be.
AND WE ARE STILL TEN MINUTES EARLY!
I’m patting myself on the back at this point. I’m definitely not a morning person, and I’m hardly ever on time for anything.
We get to the school, and I notice no one is there to help unload my kid. But I’m early, remember?! I have three minutes to wait before they even open the car drop-off. Then two. Then one. Still no cars lined up behind me… Strange.
Finally my daughter’s teacher comes walking towards me. I can read her mind by the smile on her face.
NO SCHOOL TODAY?! This can not be right! Surely, everyone else just forgot to bring their kid to school today! Right?!
Even though the school was closed today, we were there (on time!) and I’m going to consider that a bite-sized #MorningWin. Let’s hope we make it on time tomorrow, too!

What is your #MorningWin?
I received product samples to facilitate my post as well as compensation.
I am always on the run, especially in the mornings, so these are perfect for me to just grab and take with me.
I just love these new bites! Perfect size for snacking during my busy morning!
I love Belvita but I have not seen these bites ones over here yet,I will get some when I finally see them.
I love Belvita. Their products are tasty, and I feel really good when I eat them.
These look so good. I’d love to try those chocolate ones out! My mornings are usually so hectic, so it’s great to have something like this to grab on the go.
I’m going to give Belvita a try. My mornings are a train wreck to say the least, so anything I can do to increase time and decrease effort is a plus.
My son would love these. They look like cookies and that’s all I would have to tell him, have some breakfast cookies and I’m sure he would scarf them right down.
I am going to give you a virtual high-five for staying on track and staying within your extra ten minutes!
*high five* 😉
This looks like a great breakfast idea. I am all about quick and easy especially when it comes to breakfast.
This seriously makes me giggle. I would have been so embarrassed and slightly annoyed with myself, especially for having the kids up unneccesarily! haha!
My friends are always telling me to get more fiber in my diet. These would be a great way, even when I’m in a rush!
The biscuits sound great. Oh I am not laughing at the early school arrival, well smiling big I guess.
I haven’t heard of these before. Sounds like something that would be great for our really busy mornings!
No school?? OH DEAR!! LOL!! Well, sounds like the morning was happy at least 🙂
Those look really easy and convenient to just grab and go in the morning
I really love that quote! I needed to hear it this morning! 🙂
Even though school was closed, being on time totally counts. Lol thanks for the smile! The Belvita Bites sound really good too.
I’ve tried the regular ones and they taste great . I bet the little ones do too.
Oh my gosh, haha too funny! I would have been embarrassed haha. Love the breakfast idea though!
Mmm, those look yummy! I’m loving that quote too!
These sound like a great snack. I will check them out at the market. Perfect for days working ER when no time for lunch,
WOW I didn’t realize Belvita has these little mini bites now! These are great for tossing in the gym bag and have a snack before or after working out.
These would be perfect for my granddaughter. She’s loving little snacks right now.
Yep, definitely a bite-sized win. At least you were up and ready for the day early, right? 🙂
You should so get credit to coming early on day that there wasn’t school. So some day when you get your daughter to school late you should be able to pull the credit out. That’s what I think.
Agreed! I will use that next time we’re late! 😉
