Spring is here and so is the rain!
Three little kiddos and a ‘caged-up’ hyperactive hubby calls for some drastic measures!
I turned 8 year old Cherish loose in the kitchen to bake cupcakes by herself.
She did all of the measuring and EVERYTHING just right…
she was pretty proud of herself!
I made up some peanut-butter icing for them,
which was the perfect touch for these warm chocolate cupcakes.
I made the Peanut-butter Icing without measuring so the following are rough measurements.
* 1 cup creamy peanut-butter
* 2-3 cups 10x sugar
* 1 stick butter (NOT margarine)
If it is still too dry/crummy add a little milk or water.

Titus 2:3 says that we are to be
"...teachers of good things...".
We believe that part of these good things are practical skills that we all need in every day life to care for our family and neighbors.
One of our primary responsibilities as parents is equip our children with the skills and tools to one day be productive, well rounded adults. Children need to be exposed to many different areas of work. Not only should they know how to work, but they should want to work.
May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us;
establish the work of our hands for us-
yes, establish the work of our hands.
Psalm 90:17
