E's Birthday Day

E's Golden Birthday: he turned 7 on August 7th. We had a small party and enjoyed the ease and simplicity of it. E also told me how he wanted his cake this year. It is very similar to one I made for him when he was two or three.
E is getting kisses from his sister while he waits for his gifts. D was in charge of wrapping, so he "wrapped" E instead and had E guess what his presents were. This tickled the 7 yo boy---and his siblings!!
