was very productive. We began the weekend having Friday night dinner with Sydney and Matthew~~always a joy, seriously. On Saturday morning Sydney was up before me and John so she used her resources to get ready for breakfast. She pulled a bar stool into the pantry to get the cereal and then moved it further down the counter to get the bowls. It was right about that time when John walked into the kitchen. She had my cereal breakfast set out and ready for me while John made her his chocolate chip pancakes--the pancakes he never made for his daughter--hahahah!!! And then the baking began. We actually baked, iced and decorated cookies for the entire day. Two moments were very memorable: Sydney's little hands were actually big enough to use the cookie press gun herself this year; and Sydney calling John (who had gone to the store) to ask him to get red Twizzlers she can pull apart to make bows for the cookie wreathes!!! I treasure these memories and watch her grow each year, from a little girl who sat on the counter to sprinkle decorates on cookies to the beautiful young lady who can use the cookie press and tie bows made of licorice. The cookies are good, but the love that is in the cookies means so much more. Have a great day!
