Kids are the best.
I am done! Today has been rough and I am feeling beyond maxed out. All I want is to go to bed, curl up in the fetal position with my eyes closed and end this day. But, I still have my parental duties to attend to, so I push myself with the last of my sanity to get our bedtime routine completed; PJs on, teeth brushed, books read and blankets tucked.
We say our final “good night,” “sweet dreams,” and with an “I love you” the evening’s last kisses are given. I head to the door, grab the doorknob, turn my head back one final time to glow of the nightlight and hear my six year-old say to me in a whispered voice, “I like you as my mommy.”
With a sigh and watery eyes, I reply, “I like me as your mommy too.”
One sweet tender display of endearment from my son brought me back from my taxing day and at that point all I was thinking was kids are the best.
How to make the best Holiday candy presents for the whole class!
They are super easy and fun for kids to make and eat.
This is all you need: a cookie sheet, peppermint candies, Pam, gift bags with ties and a preheated oven to 350 degrees.
Step #1 – Spray the cookie sheet with Pam.
*Tip- Spray the pan in front of an open dishwasher, the excess just gets washed away.
Step #2 – Then place a few candies in each cookie shape.
Step #3 – Bake in the oven for about 5 minutes or until melted.
Step #4 – Let the candy cool, then pop them out of the cookie sheet.
Step 5 – Gently place each candy in a gift bag and secure with ties.
Forget candy canes, make fun candy gifts this year!
