Mommy the Grinch

I've been feeling a bit like the Grinch who stole Christmas this past week. Too much yuckiness in this household and I haven't been a fun mommy. So tonight, I decided to secretly make the kids' favorite holiday goodies - peppermint swirl cookies. While I was whipping up the frosting I heard Beth and Lucy down the back steps playing:

"And pretend I was the mommy and I was going on Bacation because I was sick..."

"And pretend you had to give your baby up because she sinned too much."

Ok, maybe I should've made the cookies a few days earlier. They are scarred for life. :)
