Tonight was cookie baking night. We have a tradition at cookie baking night. When it is near someone's birthday, that person gets to choose the meal for that evening and the cookie we make. It was Meghan's birthday on Saturday. She chose spaghetti, french fries, and apples for supper and a sugar cookie for the baking part of the evening (that's been her standard choice for a few years now).
Since Meghan is a teenager now (year #2 as a teenager, actually), her appearances at cookie baking nights are few and far between. It was a joy to have her with us this evening. Meghan read the Bible lesson from our book, Leading Little Ones to God. It was fun to have her participate in this way.
Later in the evening, Meghan was sending a text message to a friend. Emily saw the message. Meghan said she was telling her friend something along the lines of "you're so funny". Emily said, "That is sooo boring. I thought being a teenager would be more fun than that. I think I'll stay 8 years old."
