Baking cookies with cousin T

Acadia and I went to "Brown Grandma's" house with my sister in law to bake cookies to bring to the Ronald McDonald House. She loves, loves, LOVES her cousin T!! They have such a blast together. They get along so well and really had fun making the cookies.

On the way to the Ronald McDonald House, I explained to Acadia where we were going and why they people lived there. It's such a complicated thing to explain to a 3 year old and I didn't want to get into too much detail about it. All I wanted her to know was that there were sick people there (Like a hospital?? She asked) and that we were bringing them some cookies to help brighten their day. She then told me that she wasn't feeling well and that maybe she should have a cookie too. Well played, kid. Well played.

Then I thanked my lucky stars that my children were healthy and happy!! We are so very blessed - visiting the RMH reinforced how amazingly lucky we are...
