A Cookie for Mom

Yesterday my Mother-In-Law came over to watch the children while Mark and I went to a meeting at church. When I arrived home she told me that she’d given the children some cookies that she’d brought with her and that they (primarily Caleb) had saved the last one for me. I was a little surprised that they’d saved me a cookie, but I didn’t really think too much about it. At the time the cookie was wrapped in a white paper towel so I couldn’t see it. After she left I unwrapped the cookie and this is what I found…

A Fudge Stripe.

That might not mean anything to you, but it means a lot to me. Fudge Stripes are my favorite (grocery store) cookie.

I would try to explain what I felt when I saw that cookie…but that would be impossible. I wonder how long I can save it? Hmmm....

It’s the little things.

You don't have to explain a thing to another Mommy! What a blessing!

That's so sweet!

And I can appreciate it, even though I'm not a mommy myself!
