Pancakes

On Saturdays, we recently have been having pancakes for breakfast with the kids helping in the kitchen. This has been a great 'exercise' for me over time as this teaches me to be more patient and to be more inclined to overlook the mess. One of my pet peeves has been being picky and anxious of who is in my kitchen and the 'mess' left there. Nowadays, both the kids and I have learned to work with each other... they have learned to how to measure things and what ingredients to put in, while I've learned to be less anxious and more forgiving. Importantly, I'm learning a lot from my kids while we are all having fun and enjoying the pancakes we made.
