Simple School Lessons

Wednesday, October 15th, 2008

Princess of the Universe woke up yesterday and exclaimed that there was nothing to eat for breakfast. 

Nothing? 

Really? 

She did not want oatmeal.  Or cereal.  Or Toaster Strudel.  Or Cream of Wheat.  I remembered something she loves.

Hearkening back to How to Make an Apple Pie and See the World, I asked, Was it cinnamon that came from Sri Lanka?  How about cinnamon toast?

Her eyes lit up!

Get your apron on!

It’s the simple things that are the memory builders. 

Simple things are easily retained and used in real life. 

Simple is so wonderful. 

We made cinnamon toast together.  In our messy Tuesday morning kitchen.  Me and my Princess of the Universe.

 I love having her here to remind me to step out of my busy life, get in the “row boat” and just enjoy our relationship.
