Banging the Bowl
This morning my alarm was a banging metal bowl. In my dream it sounded as a gong a few times before I realized what it was. We have family visiting and I thought someone was playing around being loud. I went to the kitchen to ask whoever it was to quit playing around and making so much noise and lo and behold... It was my 14 year old daughter (who loves sleeping in) making pancakes for everyone. She woke up before she was called. Before me. Bless her heart! To serve the family. My heart just swells. Sometimes your kids surprise you. Sometimes you get to see that they are growing up. Sometimes they humble you. It is a wonderful thing!

You had me going, I was like "an alarm in summer?!" But, alas, it was sweetness of a child. What a wonderful way to start the holiday weekend :)
That is so sweet! Have a Happy 4th!
Oh, that is so sweet! I can't wait to meet her someday. And taste her pancakes, hehe.
Awesome! Hope you and your family have a great 4th!
Sometimes that sweet service from our children is packaged in a way that might be a little jarring to our sensibilities! But precious nonetheless!
How sweet! (PS: Will totally get those interview questions to you ASAP. July 4th snuck up on me!!)
Any meal is better when someone else makes it, but to have your daughter..... Ahhhh!
I concur with everyone else, that's so sweet! Hope they turned out well :)

Thanks for all the sweet comments. The pancakes were delicious! She has informed me that she really likes cooking. That will serve her well for the rest of her life.
I LOVE this story! How nice to have another cook in the family!
