Snickerdoodle Cheeks

Since aunt Katie and Jed try to coax Parley into sharing his freckles, he's started to think about their worth. For Parley, worth is often measured by taste. Sugar=valuable.

P: Hazey, what do freckles taste like?

H: Hmm. I don't know Parley.
Dad: (interrupting) Yours taste like cinnamon and sugar Parley.

Great.
And I've been working so hard to get him to STOP eating things that come from in and around his nose.

Well, at least he isn't using his nose to store things like Mila occasionally does. I think taking things out of his nose is much safer than putting things in. And now I may have to make some snickerdoodles. I love them.

if that were true, I'd be all over that face of his! because there's only one thing better than sugar. and that's cinnamon & sugar. irresistible.

People with freckles rock. Also, Katie, I'm not sure you should say "ticked" or "selfish."

Those are pretty perfect freckles.

I think Katie just needs to "choose to be happy" with what she has....

That's right. Listen to Jones and say, with tears in your eyes, "I happy!" What a doll. (Jones, too.)

I think Hazel's cheeks would taste like Jed's homemade peach creamy ice cream.
Atticus' like apple crisp (they are rosy and yummy looking)
Parley EXTRA GOOD Snickerdoodles
Jones' homemade chocolate cookies (he's so brown and sweet)
Jules' a sweet watermelon jolly rancher
and Penny's one of those white and pink little wedding cookies from Provo Bakery!
yummmmmmmmm
Grandma!

Hopefully he still won't be doing that in the 5th grade...I still have some of those.

Great photo, Jed!
