Happy Dearest Allie Three

Allison had her third birthday. This is her tribute:
She was excited. Then she was nervous. It is a lot of pressure having a birthday, these days.
Traditional birthday sign (from my childhood), traditional breakfast cereal (from Jake's), and traditional flowers from Daddy (new).
New Great Idea this year was to make cupcakes for everyone (which is popular now anyway) but a little cake of their own, with their name and candles; which especially works for the most flamboyant kid-spittle candle blower.
And, of course, another cake. For her to eat and "help" with during the day and hours leading up to the big moment.
I thought it was pretty tasty, too.
As far as presents go, she was shocked at the fine gesture saying,
"Oh?! For ME??!" at each one.
Then by the last paper torn, she was shouting, "NEXT!!!"
She takes to this princess thing well. It was her day!
She was so loved!
SHE IS SO VERY LOVED.
Sweetest Birthday wishes for a wonderful year of learning, growing, and pure joy for you, AllieCat.

Happy Birthday to you Allie! The cake looks so cute. I am loving your family tradition. Jake and I share the same family tradition (with Christmas too) and I think the new tradition he has started is so sweet.
