Little baker

On Thursday night, you wanted to make banana muffins. I did too much of the work and you were quite upset with me. You wanted a do over so you could do most of it yourself. Tonight, you are making chocolate chip cookies. I scraped a bowl. I must confess I'm not quite ready for you to be grown up. You were my "baby" for many years and I have a hard time remembering that you are not a baby anymore. Nine year olds can definitely bake by themselves. Your sister certainly did, and here you are doing it yourself. Hopefully you'll let me eat one.
