Leann is Six

Thanks, as always, to my wonderful friend, Donna, for the creative writing

 It's always interesting to see what cookie designs the little ones will request for their birthdays.  This year, Leann (LeLe), asked if I would make mice cookies.  We had a special day together last spring when I was a guest in her preschool class and we brought mice cookies for all of her friends.

LeLe has been a HUGE fan of puzzles ever since she was a toddler, so she requested mouse puzzle cookies for her party.  Since I made snowman puzzle cookies for her birthday last year, I detect a birthday "tradition" might be developing.

Sure hope this cute little cat is
happy with her birthday treats.


Love, hugs 
and cookies
for your 
special day!

Puzzle Cookies Past and Present

There's a Mouse in the House

As the school year draws to a close, the Preschool classroom pets need a new home.  Leann and Christopher were the only children who had parental permission to enter the drawing to take one of the mice home.  

 Leann lost, but Christopher gave the mouse to her and said, "I know how much you want it and I already have lots of pets at home."  Such a generous gesture from a 5 year old, I'm sure that Leann will always remember this special boy.

 Leann is thrilled to have Whiskers as a member of the family.

Leann invited me to join her at Preschool on a day when "special treats" were allowed, so we celebrated the day with some mice cookies for her classmates.
