Everyone keeps asking me what they should get for Olivia for Christmas, and I keep telling them something creatively driven. Olivia would sit for hours and paint, color, bead, bake, etc. A few weeks ago we had a cookie decorating day at our moms group from church and Olivia loved it! All the kids had fun, but got tired of it pretty quickly, Olivia wanted to decorate all afternoon (Notice, there are no other kids at the table with her). There were cookies that didn't make the cut because they were broken, she decorated those the next day - every last one. She's also got a little OCD in her, she organizes everything. Her blocks get put into color towers, with alike letters. Her halloween candy was organized into catagories as well. When she opens candy, like smarties or sweet tarts, they all get put into color piles, then she can eat them. It's pretty funny right now, but I'm a little scared about the future. . . Anyway, all that to explain the snowflake cookie with chocolate chips that match the icing beneath it. There were no purple chips and after a slight freak out she had to settle with green and orange.

A little OCD is good for everyone!! She is a girl after her Aunt Ange's heart! Tell her next time that blue and red make purple, so to put those on the purple icing!
