Birthdays!

I love birthdays! I have always loved birthdays!

I love my birthday. I love my family’s birthdays.

It is a day to celebrate loved ones, to celebrate their life, and all the things about that person. Today is my daughter’s 5th birthday. We have had the pleasure of watching her change and grow from a baby to a toddler into a little girl. I can’t believe how fast time has passed and how much she has changed from the day we brought her home from the hospital. She is feisty and determined, sensitive and strong. She is smart and funny, strong-willed and tough. She keeps us on our toes, but our family wouldn’t be complete without her.

Of course, she got to pick everything from what we ate for dinner, what we did together as a family, what her cake would be. She chose vanilla cake and vanilla icing with LOTS of sprinkles. Watching her light up at the sound of us singing “Happy Birthday,” the light of the candles in her sweet, blue eyes, and the joy of licking the icing from her slice of cake, melted my heart.

I love that I get the opportunity to help others celebrate their loved ones with edible art! Got a birthday coming up? Let me know if I can bring your vision to life and help you complete that celebration.
