The Birthday Cupcake

For the last three years we have had a birthday tradition in our house.  It is called the  Birthday Cupcake.  It is a tradition that I love because most times we celebrate their birthdays on a different day and this helps make the actual birthday day a little more special.  The cupcake is a ceramic sprinkle covered cupcake that is a little container.  The top of the cupcake comes off.  On their birthday mornings I usually make them a birthday breakfast and give them the birthday cupcake with it.  Inside is a little something gift from mom and dad.  It can be anything.  When Asher opened his, he found a note that said he had to search for a special gift in the coat closet.  He was SO excited when he found a giant dry erase board for his room!  He has been after me to get him once since I put mine up by the computer.  He got his own set of markers to go with it.  He and Cullen sat and colored and erased for a long while.  He was happy.  That makes me happy. :)
