That li’l punkin

Sydney wanted to go to the grocery with us yesterday.  In and of itself, that is remarkable.

While we were on the baking aisle, she said “you should let me bake a multi-layer cake and decorate it with your tools.”  I looked at her skeptically, and said, you have to clean up after it.  And, it was done.

Little did I know what she would end up with.

This is NOT what my first piping experience looked like.  She said she’d watched her Aunt pipe a lot of cakes and Sydney is also a skilled drawer and she just went with it.  I wish I’d given her a prettier plate to work on.

Anyway, the girls had their best game so far this year.  But, they lost their “teamwork” in the last few minutes and ended up losing the game.  There was too much coaching going on and at one point, I said, there’s too many people giving her feedback and she’s gonna meltdown.  And, then I saw her wipe a tear away.  But, she got right back in the game and brushed it off. 

Anyway, that’s my li’l punkin’s sunday.

We’re still taking the car everywhere.  I think we went one place over the weekend in Rob’s truck.  Zippy, zippy!  I did not read all 5 owner’s manuals, but I did read selected excerpts from each one.
