One of the great benefits about being a preschooler is that you get to stay at home and bake Christmas cookies Mommy. Yesterday, I came home for lunch and there was Jason grinning from ear to ear and telling me all about the baking he was doing. And, yes he was covered with flour. He had to show me all the cookies he cut out and frosted. He was extremely proud because he made the cookies. Now, you and I both know that Sandie did most of the work and she provided all of the know how, but he was feeling pretty good because Mommy had let him help and he was able to eat the final product. Maybe our "work" in the kingdom is a little bit like Jason making cookies. It's all Jesus, but we should be quite excited to be involved.

As usual, love the analogy, Rick. And if Jason's cookies are anything like Sandie's they'll be awesome!
