Happy Birthday, Baby!

EB turned four today! I can't believe it's already been four years since her arrival. It feels like she was just a baby yesterday...then blink...she’s a pre-schooler, bursting with energy, asking “whys” all of the time, filling K and I with awe and wonder.

Enjoying her birthday treat

We kept the day relatively low-key since she had an early birthday party a couple of months back. But, we wanted to bring cupcakes to her school so that she could celebrate with her classmates. As luck would have it, a friend had a fresh batch of blue, yellow and green frosting leftover from a cake she had made the very same day, so I was able to give EB’s cupcakes some flare without much effort. Check them out.

OK, the green one on the left is a bit messed up.

I was proud; even a bit smug. Until I was reminded that not only did I use a boxed cake mix, but also, someone else made the colored frosting. Hmmph. No matter, EB loved the cupcakes, and couldn’t wait to show them off at school.

Happy birthday, Little Girl. May you always be the happy, curious, amazing person that you are.
