Christmas cookie baking. Baking cookies with the boys is always a great idea, but turns into a mess with me usually losing my patience and someone getting in trouble. You know how it goes. With everything you try to do with kids. Or maybe that’s just our house. Anyway, I didn’t think they’d miss it this year at all. With me working evenings and weekends for Dad, I decided this year we would just forego it. But then, Mac asked the other night why we hadn’t baked cookies yet this season.
So after working all day for Dad, I came home and we baked cookies. I was tired. I was cranky. The kids were a wreck as usual. I got upset. As usual. I hadn’t been to the store in weeks, so we didn’t have the right supplies. But it was fun. And we made delicious cookies.
