Let the Birthday Begin

We kicked off Josh's big 5th birthday celebration today with his cake, which we ate with our church community group. Because we're all attending the "Bug Ball" (more on that on Friday) on his actual birthday rather than have a party, we decided to have the cake early with his friends from church.

Josh loves The Cat in the Hat right now, and when he saw the cake this morning he asked, "Mommy, did you make this for me while I was sleeping?" I felt like Santa Claus. He then spent most of the afternoon after school sitting in a chair next to the cake, which was on the dining table. It was well worth the effort and the late night to make it.
