we be jammin

Do you think I'm breaking some kind of child labor law with this?

It's fine.  It is teaching them the value of good hard work right?  Plus maybe it will help them realize school isn't so bad after all.  Staying home with me is much worse.  I make them replenish the raspberry jam they seem to drink straight from the jar.

I blame my lack of patience.  I could have done a batch or two at a time.  But nope.  Who wants to wait around when you can do all five batches at once.  It only took about an hour to do.  It took me another hour to wipe all the sticky off everything after we were done. Baylor didn't quite understand the concept that your stir with the spoon and not your hand.  Therefore, everything he touched after "helping" had that fun stick to it.  But hey, we have freezer jam again.  Bring on the scones, Nate (hint hint).
