The loveliness of low expectations

My toddler is so sweet.

She dragged a chair over to the stove tonight as I finished up with dinner. She watched me stir the ingredients in the pot, add a little butter and milk, and then as I poured the day-glow orange powder into the store brand Mac & Cheese she said -- with all the innocence and enthusiasm her little 2-1/2-year-old heart could muster:

"Wow, Mom! You're a great maker!"

I could have melted right there. "Thanks, kid!" I replied.

"You're welcome, Mommy."

Man, I love this job.
