After church Beka offered to come by to help with birthday party preparations ... if we needed help. We ALWAYS need help on birthdays. And I already knew that I would be spending most of my afternoon (before our 4:00 appointment with Chuck E. Cheese) working on a pink and purple princess castle birthday cake. So Melissa and I gladly welcomed Beka's offer.
Before Beka left, Melissa offered up a simple candle she had received recently. It smells great, but it has cinnamon in it and that (along with cats) tends to make Melissa sneeze.
Melissa was also clever enough to spot an opportunity to empty a kitchen cabinet of its Christmas (and even some lingering Halloween) candy. She made little gift bags of candy for each of the kids who came (and included a little toy as well - it wasn't ALL recycled!).
Steve, the cake looks awesome!! Or as Sarah said, "that is a perfect princess cake!"
