Happy 6th Birthday! The for real one, not the party one.

We had cake for Mo's birthday on Sunday. Instead of risking another salmon patty colored cake, we went with the store bought mix. Which worked out well, because I only freaked out once, and that was because she blew out the candles the moment that I finished lighting them which didn't allow me time to grab the camera. After I finished yelling obscenities and berating her for her ignorance I lit them again and made her pose for pictures blowing them out. I felt much better after that, and I think she learned an important life lesson. I think it's essential to seize those precious teaching moments when you can.
