My five-year-old said my cookies looked 'sad' and I can't unsee it

I was decorating some simple sugar cookies yesterday, just slapping on some royal icing, and my kid walks over. She points at one and goes, 'Daddy, why does that snowman look so sad?' I looked at my lopsided faces and messy lines and just started laughing. I'd been so focused on them being 'good enough' that I forgot they're supposed to be fun, you know? Now every time I look at a bake I'm wondering if it has the right vibe. Anyone else have a kid totally roast their decorating skills?

Kids are brutally honest about everything now.

My crew says the same thing about my paint lines.
