The Cookie Cutter

   In late 2020, during the Covid pandemic, I wanted to do something special for the kids on my school bus for Christmas. I wanted to give them a homemade treat, but not your ordinary chocolate chip cookie.  I wanted it to be something that said this job is more than just a job and that they are more than just kids.  They are MY kids.  I care about their achievements and accomplishments.  A school bus cookie represented what that job means to me. 

    Later, my mother suggested I give classes on how to decorate cookies.  I guess even adult children need nudging because I doubted myself and put it off. Finally, I got up the nerve and filled 3 back to back classes in one day.
