Day 351 – Waffle-Mania

One of my favorite moments this Christmas was when I opened my gift from my middle son, Micah. Now don’t get me wrong – I loved everything I received this Christmas from everyone but this one was super cool on another level. He bought me a waffle maker. Now the gift itself is good enough but the back story is what touched my heart.

Months ago, just in very random conversation I said I was thinking of getting a waffle maker. Micah was in the room and heard how I went on about how I not only wanted to make waffles but I wanted to try to cook cinnamon rolls and hash browns and other stuff in it as well. I had seen the recipes on Pinterest and really wondered if they worked. But with everything else going on, I guess I just never got around to it.
So, imagine my surprise when I opened up a waffle maker from him on Christmas. He was smiling so big and when I looked at him I said, “OMG, you remembered”??? It was so awesome and thoughtful. I ran to him and gave him a huge hug thanking him and was truly excited. I also thought that I did something really right with these boys because they are all clearly prepped to be guys who listen!! LOL

Even though I kid- I really was touched by that. The thoughtfulness from my boys is so wildly above and beyond and I am feeling quite blessed. So, for dinner tonight I not only made the waffles (and they were truly delish!! Hungry Jack mix is so amazing) but I also made hash browns and cinnamon rolls in the waffle maker (not to mention bacon and eggs on the side). Vinny was there helping every step of the way as he always does and together we made a breakfast feast for dinner with a “waffle-mania” theme for my intention.
Happy Monday!! #YUM #Cheers #HGAL
