Making pizza with the kids

Making pizza with the kids today was lots of fun!!
The kids all had a great time chopping and preparing their own toppings for their own personalized pizzas. I love watching the children interact together with kindness. This group of children is epically kind just by the way they share and are so willing to help one another I really love it!! I wanted to do something fun,  so I decided to play some good old fashioned Charlotte diamond I am a pizza. All the kids sang along it was adorable!! I love that song it takes me back that's for sure! After fining up one of the little girls Grace came over to me with a card saying thank you for the cooking. It is little things like that, that truly touch my heart!! I will keep that card and cherish it for always. For all your parents out there just keep cooking with your kids at home as well!! Kids really love it! Your children and you will always remember the good memories around food and the bad ones. So it is so important to create lots of good memories around spending time together and having fun cooking. It's more then the dish on the table it's where the heart is while enjoying it! Thank you kids for making making pizza so much fun!!























 It was so nice to see you my old friend Carlos. Thank you guys for supporting me with my cooking classes!!
all three of you are truly blessings from God!! Thank you!
