Loving Hands




On boxing day my Mom, Dad and Shauna headed over to our house for a couple of days. My mom was eager to get baking with the kids so that they could take the cookies to a homeless shelter. She mentioned to me how she was never much of a baker while we were growing up, but as she rolled out the dough she talked about how she wasn't going to miss that opportunity to bake with her grandchildren. I think I was more moved that she wanted to learn from how she was as a mom to what kind of Grandma she will be, more so than her bringing cookies to those in need. She has taught me so much, as she goes through life. By her actions more so than her words. I love my mom.
