a chip by any other name.

There are many reasons that I love baking with my little Willow.

The following conversation during yesterday’s cookie baking is merely one of them:

Willow: Mom, may I have one chocolate chip?

Long pause for dramatic effect. (As if I would tell that angelic face “no” to a single chocolate chip.  Why bake with Mommy if extra chocolate chips are not part of the bargain?)

Me: Weeelll, Willow, I guess we could spare one chocolate chip for you to eat.

Willow: Oh good.  Thank you Mommy.  You’re the best.  I’m going to name it Pixie.

    This made me laugh out loud because my 3-year-old names everything. And they all have the same name…Rainbow!

    super cute! My 3-year old decided to name a goldfish (that only God knows how it has survived at our home living in a trifle dish on the kitchen table) Sherrie…and it was so random, but its too cute! Willow's statement reminds me of Dory from Finding Nemo (and you will be my squishy!)
