This morning I was feeling like cooking (which is a big deal for me ;); so, I asked the boys if they wanted Pancakes or Waffles. Clay said Pancakes. I thought that sounded great.
I was mixing the batter and about to pour the dough on the griddle when a wonderful memory came back to me from my childhood. My Dad always made our Pancakes in different shapes or letters. He would make a "B" for me and sometimes an airplane or some other design. Dad always made Pancake Day Fun!! I want to carry on this tradition. Unfortunately, I am not as artistic as my Dad, so I passed on making an airplane and made two letter "Cs" and their favorite other letter "J" - for Jumping J (from the Sesame Street All-Star Alphabet video.)
The boys loved their letter shaped breakfast and I loved remember a very special time in my life. What a great morning!
