Cookies and Firefighters!

The other day my 4 year old son, Hunter wanted to bake cookies and take them to the firehouse. (we only live about 2 blocks from it) I'm not sure where he got the idea but how could I say no to something like this? So I looked in the pantry to see what we had, we decided on pumpkin cookies. But not just plain pumpkin cookies, jazzed up pumpkin cookies. To half the dough we added chocolate chips and the other half we got super fancy, LOL not really, but we added raisins, oatmeal, and pecans. They were both super good! Then we got out our craft stuff and Hunter made them a special card.

Here he is with his special masterpiece! 

He just makes my heart melt and is so special.

Then I carried the cookies because he wanted to ride his bike. When we got there he knocked on the door and waited. When the firemen answered the door they were super happy to see their surprise! They let Hunter play on all of the equipment, answered all of his questions, (there were a lot of them) and even let him put on their coat! They were awesome!

In doing something nice for someone else Hunter got way more in return. Encourage you're kids to do things with their heart so they can learn how rewarding it is. It will become second nature to them.

Thank You and remember:

Always Believe in yourself! You're worth it!
