Happy Mother's Day to me!

The nice thing about having kids in school is the precious bits of junk that they make for me during arts and crafts time.  Today, the Friday before Mother's Day, they went all out.

They both cooked for me!  Amiri helped make a batch of cookies from scratch, and then he spread frosting to make them into sandwich cookies for me.   Arram's class made scones, and I saw a photo of him concentrating really hard while dumping the cup of sugar into the big bowl.  Then the treats were wrapped up nicely and proudly presented at pick-up time.

Amiri also made me an awesome card.  Unfortunately, the picture of his face fell off.  Arram found it on the floor.  As is his wont to do with his brother's art projects, he tried to eat it and I had to fish it out of his mouth.
