"I want to blow it out..."

How do you tell a three-year old, when you place a piece of cake in front of him, that it's not his birthday? You don't, that's how. You go with it.

Xavier: It's my birthday! I want to blow it out. Sing!

He meant a candle. He needed a birthday candle. Thank whoever, I had some on hand.

If he smiled any bigger his cheeks would get sucked into his ears!

One puff and it was over.


We dubbed it "un-birthday" cake.

This was on Tuesday. There were leftovers on Wednesday. Guess what we did on Wednesday? Yup!

It's not Rocket Science people. Sometimes you do the silly shit to keep the kids happy. Cause when they're happy? Momma's happy too, which is the most important thing above all, right? Shhhhh! It's a secret.

  1. it's tradition at our house for everyone to get a candle on their slice of cake and blow it out after the birthday person has done it.
