I love having days off and spending alone time with my son. We play the Wii, do laundry together, run errands and we almost always cook together. I love cooking and I hope all my children will develop a joy for cooking as well. Today we decided to make some brownies, actually I've been cooking, or 'fixing' food all day but Camden and I made cookie brownie bars together. He got ready to make them and came to me and this was the conversation we had:
Camden "Momma can we make the brownies now?"
Mom "Sure, let me put this away and then we can."
Camden "Well, we need all the ingredients."
Mom (while hysterically laughing I didn't know he knew that word!) "It's on the box."
Camden "We need the ingredients."
Mom "We can find out what we need on the back of the box and get it from the pantry."
Camden "Well, we need soil."
Mom (laughing again) "We need what?"
Camden "We need soil to make the brownies!"
Mom "You mean oil? It's called oil, it sounds like soil though, doesn't it?"
I tend to forget what a joy and a blessing my kids are...days are long, nights get hectic but I am very blessed to be a mom of three! Thank you Lord for entrusting me with your children, for allowing me to experience what it is to be a parent. Needless to say, we got our brownies made...no "soil" added! LOL!!
