Musings

I have to admit something. Sometimes I wonder what it would like to have a little girl. Growing up, I kept the cookie jar filled with my creations. So, I wonder when I'm doing a project or cooking, how it would different if I had little girls. For instance, today we were baking cookies. My boys love to bake cookies with me and they are getting good at it. But if I had a girl things would be different:
-eggs would not be smashed before they are in the bowl
-no one would have a wrestling match over a beater
-I might have more cookies that make it to the oven
-we would use measuring cups and spoons
-our hands would be clean
-the mixer could use another speed besides HIGH
-there may be more tears and whining
-I'd hear more of "it's not fair" or "Mom, she's...."
On second thought maybe it is easier with boys! They love the "messy" process and can't wait for the warm goodies.
