How do you like your eggs?

Sam loves to learn how to do new things and loves to help in the kitchen.  I confess, I’m not always eager to have the kids underfoot, but Mike has been great about teaching them.  Sam and Wendy learned to crack eggs at a young age — I’m pretty sure he had Sam doing it by age 3.   Occasionally they get shell in the batter, but overall, they do a great job!

Anywho, one night Daddy was slated to work late and I declared a breakfast for dinner menu.  But I realized I had my hands full with waffle making and  making eggs, so I asked Sam if he wanted to learn how to make scrambled eggs.

He did a great job!  He was very careful and aware of what was hot on the stove (and I closely supervised).  The eggs were yummy, and I suspect they were all the more delicious because he made them himself.  He was so proud to tell his Daddy when Mike surprised us and showed up in time for dinner after all.
