There are more Barbies and toys in this house than dust fragments. Many generous people have blessed my children with a youth of abundance. The blessings make it a challenge for me to find gifts for my very own kids...so I look to the "out of the box" if you will. Events. Places to visit. New things. My little girl needs time with me more than anything. Time. It's all she asks for...seriously. When you have an almost ten year old asking for time you better damn well make some.
One of my Christmas gifts this year was a little jewelry box of sweet little cupcake earrings and a pamphlet to Kitchen Chemistry on Main Street. A little girl and her mama were going to take a class together. Today we finally got to. Now in passing I mentioned this to my dear friend, Tina. She liked the idea as well. Then I invited Gramary because we were lucky enough to have her as a guest this weekend. We ended up with a full table of incredible spirits. My "sister" Tina and her dear mother, Theresa. I can still hear her laughs from this morning. Little Gabrielle. Our buddy, Jihan was there as well (even though she was somewhat of a ringer in the piping and creativity departments). Seven of us in total. We created cupcakes together as we were taught a bunch of new tips, tricks and techniques. A flower, penguin, pooch, lovebug and rainbow later and we were set. It was something new, a wonderful way to gather together and just what a little girl and her mother needed....no matter the age. Love you girls and so glad we got to share something so sweet. Yep, pun completely intended!
