Solomon went to bed early Tuesday night, so Kingston and I decided to bake some sugar cookies. He was so excited. These "alone" moments are much more rare than they used to be and I miss them. I think he does too. While we were rolling the dough he was standing on his ladder looking at me with the happiest little eyes in the world. He patted me, laid his head on my shoulder and said "Mama, you're a fine fella". I'm pretty sure tears welled up in my eyes. I was thinking, he had no idea what that phrase meant, but he obviously has felt love when it has been said to him. He clearly knows that the person / people who say that to him love him. I think I have heard my dad say it, and I heard Maymie Pharr say it to him the other day. I had to share the story!
They even tasted good! He was so proud of himself!!
Can you tell which ones Kingston decorated?

Seriously, that is the sweetest thing I've ever heard! Kingston totally made me tear up (at work) when I read that. It's so nice to get positive reinforcement from your kids, too!
