Just a little funny and a Great Recipe to make with your kids!

Traveling between each Kids-R-Kids center is so much fun! One day at the Mason center, a little boy asked me why I was not looking at the words when I read the book. I told him that I had memoriezed the book and that I know all the words. He then asked me if I really knew all the words and was I just making them up! Too cute!!!!
