Drew and I have been doing a study of I Peter this summer, in preparation for the Bible Bee event next month. Today we were challenged to do something nice for someone and expect nothing in return. Drew decided he wanted to make chocolate chip cookies and give them away to friends and neighbors. He donned an apron and began cooking.
Drew made a double batch, and we kept just two dozen cookies for our family. He blessed several friends and neighbors with his homemade goodies. He said he really liked seeing the joy on people's faces when he handed them the cookies, and that everyone loved the fact that he used real butter!
Drew has made great strides toward maturity in the past few months, and it's been fun to watch. He's always had a big, generous heart, but this ability to offer up a good deed and expect nothing in return is a new step for him. I'm so proud of him!
