Wow your 7 1/2 year old doing so well! I'm just now really working on this with mine, but I am running a bit behind. We just started homeschool this year. I hope we can catch up fairly quickly!

However, as it is, my little guy does enjoy standing on the stool next to me as I chop up veggies (he LOVES throwing the onion peels and such into the sink :) ) and the best part? I can cook without him whining at my knees...ok, it at least makes the whining minimal ;) I've discovered most of the time, he's just curious at what I'm doing. He "ooooohhhhs" each time he sees the steam rising from a pot or something dissolving into water or as something disappears as I stir...he's one curious, mischevious lil' monkey! :) Very cool. :) If I had a little girl, I’d be right there with you!

I always enjoy reading your stories, thoughts and encouragements. I especially love this post and fully agree with all you have written. I have six children and I am at the point where I'm fully enjoying the fruits of my early "investments" of training. My two older girls (14 today, and 11) are very skilled in the art of homemaking. I've been enjoying the wonderful aromas of homemade chili and cornbread, egg and cheese souffles, hearty casseroles, fresh baked breads and much more, that were lovingly prepared by my sweet girls. It brings joy to my heart as I watch the little ones gather around the kitchen island (on chairs) to help me or the older girls prepare a meal or bake something yummy. Our precious girls are such a blessing to our family! Thank you for your wonderful daily words of encouragement and have fun with your sourdough making journey. It will be well worth it!

I know it's been a while, but I loved this post and just had to comment! I can't imagine any other way of being a mommy to my little girls. I feel sorry for the ladies out there that don't train their daughters this way... It is one of the greatest joys of my life to train my daughters, and mine are much younger than your oldest ones. We love to be in the kitchen together mixing things and sometimes making a mess. Later on it's fun for my oldest (3 years old) to tell Daddy that she helped make the pizza, or mix the cake batter, or knead the bread dough. Yes, this is something for which I definitely have a passion! I encourage any of your readers out there to follow your great example if they don't already... and just watch the joy and the relationship between mother and daughter blossom to the glory of God! Take care & Keep on blogging! Amy Howard Hi Bethany!
