Rather than have a tea party, the boys and I spent the afternoon having a cocoa party.
Even little boys deserve some pretty china, sometimes.
Liam set the table. Aaron put out the napkins. Can't see them, can you? Me neither.
Step #1: measuring and mixing the cocoa powder
Little A joined in, too. He's not so little anymore. Mama is having a hard time with that one.
A peppermint dipped marshmallow to top it all off.
Oh, but don't forget the cupcakes. It's not a cocoa party without a little chocolate cupcake.
Christmas is full of so many exciting to-dos that January can be a letdown, especially for my little ones.
Why can't we do special things all the time, says me?
So, today's afternoon activity was an attempt to put a little miracle into an everyday moment. We had a few spills, a couple-a chocolate mustaches, but mostly a lot of yummy fun together.
