Mrs. Rivera was a good friend of ours in Utah. She came to watch Hannah the night Daniel was born. Hannah woke up and was surprised to see Mrs. Rivera there. When Hannah woke up in the morning Daddy was already back home and Mrs. Rivera had gone home. Hannah wanted to know where Mrs. Rivera was. Daddy told her that her brother had been born and asked if she wanted to go see him. Her response? "No, I want to go shovel." We had just bought the turtle sandbox the night before. :) She changed her mind and decided that maybe she would go see her brother after all.
Daddy loves Snickerdoodles and this is the only recipe Mommy has ever used. Snickerdoodles are Daddy's favorite cookies with Honey Cookies coming in a close second. These freeze very well so you can make a huge batch and then put them away for another day. It's always nice to have some dessert in the freezer.
Love Always,
Mommy
