Happy Birthday, Jon!

Today is Jon's birthday, and Savy has been super anxious to make him a birthday cake. She picked out the flavor, frosting, and decorations herself. School was over at lunch today because of the Christmas play tonight, and she donned her little apron in preparation as soon as we got home.

Here she is...just about to do the frosting. I had to help a lot with this part.



Sprinkles are Savy's all time favorite decoration for anything.


She really wanted to write "Happy Birthday Daddy" by herself. I had to guide her hand...it's messy, but she still feels like she did it without help. She did make the flower without any assistance.



She was so proud of the finished product! She even helped count the correct number of candles.





Happy birthday, Jon! There are no words strong enough to express how much we love you. Since the day we met, I haven't been able to imagine my life without you. Savy and Scarlett both think you hung the moon. Thank you for being the best husband and father in the world. I only wish that there was a birthday gift I could give you that would even compare to all you've given to me.
