A Herd of Snowmen


Mom and I cook at a homeless shelter the first Monday of every month. It's easily the best day of the month. I love hanging out with these terrific folks having big fun doing good work.

Mom and I have gotten into the habit of making special treats for the children. This time, we made cupcakes and marshmallow snowmen with Fruit Roll-up scarves and gumdrop hats. Making six dozen of them took almost seven hours, but the kids' reaction was worth every single second.

And when I downloaded the snowman pics, I found this one. I'd forgotten taking it, but how great is the look on T's face?

Looks of awe, however triggered, are gifts from God. I love that you and your mom were the instruments of awe for all those kids. Those cupcakes are amazing.

Can't believe how big T is already, and how very adorable.
