My 4-year-old sous chef

I let go of my need for perfection and let Wyatt help me make sugar cookies in the kitchen while Hadley was napping. I have a ton of cookie cutters in all sorts of non-holiday shapes, like animals, airplanes, cars and people. He loved squishing the dough (yes, he washed his hands) and pressing the cutters into it. He was so excited to help out and had a ball picking out all the shapes. He told me he was making some specially for Hadley and selected  a heart and a butterfly, saying "Oh! Hadwee will WUVVV these!" We rolled and stamped our little hearts out and frosted them when they were done cooling. The kids got a kick out of picking out their favorite cookie after dinner.
