It is bitter sweet when your kids suddenly grow up, and yes it is quite sudden! Praise the Lord that we have so many years to be with them and enjoy them! My DD is starting to cook on her own and while I still see her as a child I am realizing that she is old enough to understand that she needs to be careful while operating an oven or stove. So far her “specialty” is breakfast and we get it several times a week even at dinner but what mama can complain that their child wants to make dinner, especially when all these years we have sat there wishing someone else could do the kitchen “chores” just once!? Thank you for sharing your special moments with us.

Ah, messes! They certainly go with cooking and baking! 🙂

My kids have both grown a lot through the summer and fall! Happy and sad all rolled into one.

I let my kids break the eggs into a separate bowl and then we can fish out any eggshell if we need to. My son has loved cracking eggs ever since he was pretty small. It does seem like a boy thing.

It’s so much help having kids that can bake! And it really is fun to see how much they like to help and want to help when they’re little. 🙂

My older kids like to bake just about anything from cookies to cornbread. My little ones like to help pour in the ingredients and stir. I’ll admit I don’t let the Littles crack the eggs often because of getting shell in!

Tucker is really looking older in this post! I have one in particular who likes to help in the kitchen quite a bit and my other two like to make messes still 🙂
