Last week my son turned six. And so , as most parents do , we decided to hold a party.Sometimes I wonder why we actually hold a party. For him to celebrate his birthday or for us to celebrate that he made it this far, against the odds.
Ok, no , it is not that bad. We are happy to see him grow up , learn and grow.
OK. So to celebrate his birthday we held a party . And as is the custom by now , He gets to choose the type of birthday cake that he wants. Three years ago it was 'NEMO', then 'Sharktale', Last year , a castle with dragons.
And this year - A dinosaur cake. And thus Dad, that's me, set out to build a dinosaur cake.
My son had some pretty specific ideas of what the cake should look like. For one it had to have a volcano. And so a Volcano it was.
My son had a lekker bash on Saturday , and of the cake a small ice cream tub filled wit bits of cake and icing was left over. Seems the volcano did good.
Wonder what challenge next year is going to bring.
