Scenes From A Sunday

There are just some days that are so wonderful you want to keep the memory of them safe somewhere. For me...this is that place. Today was a simple, cozy, family day. An ordinary day. But it was so special I know that someday I will want to return to it and relive it in my mind and heart.

Today was the day my little Flynn waited all week for. Today we baked Easter sugar cookies. And Grandma came to help. : )

My baby rolled and cut and placed the cookies on the sheet.

She has the very best teacher, you know.

As I set up the table for the icing and decorating, I once again thought of how quickly time passes. I thought back to the baking days when I had all littles...and I did all the rolling and cutting and baking. Now...they can do it on their own. And I'm sad. But just a little. Because isn't that what parenting is really all about?

We had fun icing and decorating...

and someone had fun mixing colors. : )

We have cookies for days!

But we did have some favorites. : )

After we finished, Flynn asked Grandma if she would rock her baby doll.

(I adore this moment.)

And to finish off our wonderful day...Sunday dinner of Chicken and Waffles.

Ordinary days really are the most extraordinary.

Have a wonderful, blessed Holy Week, my friends.
