Let Them Eat Cake!

My boy l.o.v.e.s. to help me cook! So yesterday when he asked if I would teach him how to bake a cake as a surprise for the family...well, yes! So it's out of a box, but the icing is homemade!



Complete with sprinkles.

Together we are preparing a feast for tonight, including tacos, homemade refried beans, rice, guac, salsa and CHOCOLATE!
So I'm supposed to be writing a post on grieving, and I'm talking beans and cake? I'm working on it...
Thank you SO MUCH for your prayers! God is hearing and answering them. He is so very good!
For no matter how many promises God has made, they are "Yes" in Christ. And so through Him the "Amen" is spoken...
2 Cor 1:20

  8. Connnie,
    Yes there are good and bad days, but as I can tell from both of these post this was a good day!! Asking to be taught is a great start:) I promise.... His smile is a huge blessing, and he looks like he is doing well or he was that day! We have to focus on the good days even if there aren't as many:) Love ya and keep teaching him thos everyday skills, he needs those also:)

    his heart is starting to heal.

    Thursday morning we had
    a morning of tearful grieving.
    When we saw your blog in the
    late afternoon after Sarah had
    just finished making peanut
    butter cookies.... We both
    laughed!
