I’m a Proud Mama are you?
I am because I have this sweet kid who can be a bit bossy, but still knows his place. He loves me so much I know I’m his favorite (shhhhh dont tell daddy), I’m here day in and out spending time and teaching, playing and just listening and watching.
He really enjoys being homeschooled, I think our whole family likes the idea. My little man learns as the days go by, sometimes faster than others and sometimes not so much.
He loves to cook and enjoys baking with me as well, as long as I’m not in a rush then he gets to do lots of stuff. He cracks eggs, measures stuff, cuts sticks of butter and sifts but never remembers that word sift. He has even made his own entire lasagna with just a little coaching you could say, just reminding him not to much cheese for each layer, you know so there is enough.
One of his favorite things to do is play with fondant and decorate cupcakes or a cake. We call fondant our candy play-doh and its true that’s basically what it is. He has made full sets of angry birds for a Easter cake we just set on a plate around some little cakes we bought from Swiss colony.
He says he wants to work in a taco bell, I explained if you want to work in the restaurant business you should run your own, that you can still cook to. He likes that idea he wants to be a fry cook he says and a pastry chef, I just love that. I also love cooking, baking and just making things in the kitchen that are edible.
I love that he enjoys watching the Foodnetwork channel and he loves Alton Brown, Diners, Drive ins & Dives, Paula Deene and some of the Cupcake Wars, Chopped, Food Network Challenge, etc..
All and all he just makes me proud, I’m proud to be his Mama and he’s little Sweetie Pie!!
