PANCAKES...but, not as good as Pop's

So, I decided to make pancakes for the girls this morning. And, for some reason I was inspired to let them make faces. Chocolate chip eyes, coconut nose and strawberry lips. They had fun...and I love to hear them giggle as they try to outdo each other with their creativity process.

Side Note - for my dad:

I worked so hard trying to get these pancakes made. I actually even used measuring cups (not really...just trying to add to the guilt). I measure, I pour, I stir...all with so much love. And you know what your granddaughters told me? "Mom, these are good but not as good as Pop's". All I can tell them is "I know, but Pop won't share his pancake recipe". "Yes, I know I am his daughter just like you are my daughters. And, of course I would share my secret pancake recipe with you. I will just have to keep trying to duplicate it. Yes, I know it would be a lot easier if Pop would just send the recipe...but, I guess I will just have to keep trying"???

Yep...I'm sinking to that level. I'm using my kids.

DON'T JUDGE ME!!!

My dad makes really yummy pancakes.
