Yesterday was not a good day for Zach and me. I think we are both so sensitive and when you mix that with disobedience it's just not pretty. I'm glad those days are becoming far and few between. ; o
Thankfully today was a new day, and praise the LORD His grace abounds! Where would I be without it?
Jason was playing in a golf tournament out of town, so I decided Z and I would make cookies. He said he wanted to make M&M cookies, so this is just what we did.
The best part
Don't forget about the Picky Sticky Giveaway! I'll announce the winner tomorrow night.
...His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness.

While I don't know Z in "real" life he seems so much like my oldest. Baylor is full of life and gives me fits at times. I must say it has gotten easier as he gets older. He is very determined though and doesn't take "no" very well. Being a mom to boys has definitely stretched me in ways I didn't know possible, but I am so thankful! I love my little guys:).
Z looks so "old" in these pictures! When did he grow up? Those cookies look yummy.. please send some to SC! :)
Katie! So sorry you had a rough day, but thankful today was better for you. And just go ahead and drop some of those cookies off here on your way to KDO, YUM ;)!!
Oh, I know what you mean! I think it is his age. My daughter came home with an new attitude (I had never seen) from Mother's Day Out this week!! I didn't like how it made feel. I like her sweet, kind, and thinking I am the coolest thing ever!!!
How fun! I love cooking with my kiddos too! Thats too funny about you and Z not getting along. That has soo been Graham and myself lately! I'm chalking it up to a fun summer ending and school starting up!
xoxox
Send me some!!!!! :)
I knew you were having a bad day. The Lord put you on my heart 100 times!! I prayed for you. Love you so. Love the cookies and LOVE that boy!!
girl, it must have been something in the air, because i posted about the EXACT same thing - even used the same verse! :) I just wish I would have thought about adding in some m&m cookies to our day ;-)
thankful for new beginnings every morning!
Stick with it, Katie - every single minute you spend in patient, diligent training pays off in the long run!!! (and vice versa - when it's neglected you have a miserable household!)
Some day people will come up to you and say "You're so lucky to have good kids!"
I never know if I should point out there's no luck involved or just smile and keep my mouth shut. :)
G and I have days like that too. He can be the sweetest little guy and in a flash it can turn south, big time. We too, are working on immediate obedience. It's a 24/7 struggle. We'll get there, and they'll be wonderful young men one day.
I am glad to know that there become fewer and fewer rough days, Because I feel like almost every day is a rough day these days! Your cookies look yummy! Disobedient or not, Zach sure is cute!!!
Where do you find bags of those m&m minis? I used to be able to find them, but have not seen them at target, walmart, etc. for over a year. I love those cookies and I'm desperate to find bags of those m&m's!
