I decided to bake Ty's first birthday cake myself. I went to Publix and asked about a couple of their cakes, but it just didn't feel right. Our mom always baked our cakes (she says because they were too cheap), but it always meant so much to us to come home from school and our cake would be on the kitchen table with presents around it.
Yesterday, we lit the candle and everyone sang. I think that Ty was kind of freaked out by all of the faces staring at him. I was scared to put the lit candle down in fron to Ty. I just pictured him hitting the candle and either burning himself or catching something on fire. So, I blew it out first and then gave it to him.
