I was making some homemade biscuits and sausage gravy this morning. I asked my daughter to being me the biscuit cutter. She asked if we could cut some biscuits in the shape of hearts. I was about to say no because I wanted to get them in the oven quickly, but then I thought why not?
We had a good time. We made one heart for each child and she was so proud to tell everyone she helped.
Not perfect looking, but delicious, homemade and time well spent with my baby girl!
Try one time this week to say yes to a little one that requests to help in the kitchen if you normally would not. It means a lot to them to be able to say that they have helped and they will probably learn a few things in the process, as will you!

I love those heart shaped biscuits. The only one I have wanting to help in the kitchen is the cat browsing on my cupboards. :-(
ReplyDeleteI find myself trying to say "yes" more to my children, too. I love the heart biscuits! Stopping by from the blog hop.
