Baking Cookies

Sydney and I baked Christmas cookies today! It was so much fun and I even let Syd taste one sans icing. She loved it of course. Every time we do an activity together I can't help but smile till my teeth hurt. To share a childhood joy of mine, especially when I had so few, makes feel like such a good mom. Baking cookies. Making ornaments. Listening to holiday tunes while dancing around the living room. It's the little things that make the best memories. I know Sydney won't remember her first Christmas, but this one is already becoming best Christmas *I* ever had.
