mickey mouse birthday

It's hard to believe that my little boy is three today. I was so excited to make him a Mickey Mouse cake for a couple of reasons. 

First of all John loves Mickey Mouse just as much has he enjoys eating chocolate cake!!  But more importantly, I just enjoy making cakes for my kids on their special day.  Sure, I may have had a DRD moment  (sudden jerk of my hands) and the sprinkles flew every where expect where I wanted them to go, but my little boy doesn't care.  He loves how the cake turned out and keeps asking, "Is it time for cake yet?"  

I was never able to make my daughters cute cakes when they were his age.  I would buy a princes cake of some sort from the local bakery and have to call it good.  Sure, they were thrilled to have a super cute dessert, but I love it that John will grow up having a homemade  birthday cake year after year.  

Sure, this mouse may have some sprinkles in the wrong places, but back in the day I could barely frost a cake.  And the thought of piping homemade butter cream, never even crossed my mind.  Plus, the way I see it, if John doesn't care about the mistakes his mommy made, then neither will I! 

Happy Birthday, John!!  ​
