Cooking with Henry

I logically know that Henry needs to learn basic things like pouring things into a bowl, picking them up and putting them on a plate etc. I come up with "brilliant" ideas for Henry and I to make in the kitchen, like pizza from scratch, chocolate chip cookies from scratch, a salad for dinner. I have to say she is getting much better with her hand eye coordination but I am not getting better with my frustration level. I lack patience, yes I said it, I lack patience. When trying to parent my daughter who also has a lack of patience, we usually end up with a big mess in the kitchen and ordering take out.
Will I learn that these "brilliant" ideas not end up the way it is pictured in my mind, well I have already learned this but will I stop doing these mother daughter cooking/baking excursions? No I won't I will just do breathing exercises and always have a bottle of wine chilled and ready to go after the mess has officially been made.
