About a week and a half ago, Jayden, Karah, and I all took a nap during the day. Jayden woke up first and went downstairs. While Karah and I were asleep, he and Grandma started making cookies!! Karah and I came down to a very excited Jayden. Grandma was very brave and let him pretty much do everything, even crack the eggs! Jay was enjoying licking the wisk, and Grandma let Karah have a small spoon of dough as they waited for the cookies to go into the oven. She also turned on the oven light so the kids could watch the cookies bake. And they did. They sat there the whole 11 minutes, and made comments about each cookie on the sheet. "Oh, that one is very big and pretty...That one will go to Daddy...That one has LOTS of CHOCOLATE...Let's send that one to Uncle Scott's Birthday!" They were so sweet and they were actually getting along and not trying to one up each other. And they were being patient and not asking "Are they ready yet?" a million times. Sometimes they are just at each other's throats and constantly bickering and driving me up the walls, and then they have moments like this that remind me that they really are good friends and that they really do love each other.

That's just about how I look waiting for cookies to come out of the oven.
Jayden is getting tall! I miss your voice. I think about you a number of times per week. Take care and get some sleep.
