Ever since he was 3 Mat has loved to cook, and be in the kitchen. If we are baking or cooking dinner he is right there with his apron on cooking. By the time he was 6 he could cook his own mac and cheese and ramon noodles.
Two weeks ago we had our ward's trunk or treat and everybody made a dessert. Mat decided that he was going to make his favorite cookies pumpkin cookies from scratch (scratch being that we buy a pumpkin and make the puree from it). He made it all by himself, all I did was read the recipe to him.
He was so proud of those cookies and very mad that they were all gone by the time he got to the dessert table. I sampled them and I can tell you that they were in fact very good. He has asked to help make Thanksgiving Dinner and if he can make a pie.
So be prepared Emril Mat is a coming...
From the time that Mik discovered art he has been obsessed with it. All he does is draw. He would come into my classroom and draw the most detailed cartoon's on my boards.
He now has several how to draw books and can be found drawing, anything from dragons to ariplanes to battlefields complete with tanks and jets.
He has discovered my art supplies from when I used to draw and has completely taken them over. Crayoons, markers, colored pencils, they have all been taken over by him. It is so bad that we are painting his room so that he can draw on the walls.
So move Picasso and Monet there is a new artist in town.
