Making Cake (and messes)

Charlotte and I had a fun and messy mommy/daughter time as we baked a cake for my birthday today! Charlotte is an excellent helper-she threw away the egg shells, added the water, mixed the cake mix, and added the sprinkles! And the best part was that we didn't have to clean up! Thanks Greg! I love you! (I do realize that Charlotte is going to have to learn to clean up her messes and as my mom says, you should always clean as you go in the kitchen, but that is quite the impossible task with a toddler helping!) The cake was very yummy and a special treat, but the biggest treat was teaching my daughter a skill that I love to do and we had a blast doing it!

A bigger treat came today when Charlotte said "Happy Birthday" to me!
