thank you for the sugar cookie

Classroom door opens Third grader named Piper enters carrying cookies on a tray Would you like one? All the students yell that they want one. I tell them “just for adults,” for there are not enough. She has one sugar, three peanut butter and eighteen raisin cookies left. I take the last sugar cookie. What kind of mother sends raisin cookies for a birthday party at school?
