Carter found a packet of candles and really really wanted to have a birthday so she could blow them out. Well, her birthday is a long ways away so we decided to have an un-birthday party. To her it was all semantics as all she really cared about was getting to blow out candles on a cake. So last night, she and Robert made a chocolate cake. I gave them a crazy cake recipe where you mix all the ingredients in the pan, figuring that Carter would have fun helping to mix it up. I was working on bookkeeping and could hear cussing, laughing and tears and really couldn't tell you who was doing what.
Carter stuck in the candles after I convinced her not to stick them all in one spot. The cake was almost too warm and the bottom of the candles melted, but trying to get Carter to wait any longer was a lost cause. She sang the birthday song and blew out the candles. She was one happy girl. She didn't even really want to eat the cake although she did try to get me to just give her a bowl of Cool-Whip. She wanted to make another cake today but I figure even un-birthdays should be somewhat special and maybe try to keep them down to once a month! The video is cute although it would have been better if you couldn't hear Chase in the background.
