one more week to go until it's yannick's birthday and i took it upon myself to make a birthday cake shaped like an aeroplane. why? because it's his favorite thing in the world (that's MY boy, people!).

but yes, esther making a plane shaped cake, with blue and white icing. it'll be interesting.

two day's after, he'll be at day care. since the kids in his group are now all between one and two years old, some parents can't help themselves anymore and have started a heated competition who brings the best b-day treats to daycare. one kid brought toddler chairs for the kids in his group. yes, chairs. are y'all insane???
needless to say yannick will only bring a box of raisins. no ribbons, no 'yannick' painted on handmade cupholders, no oil painting of his adorable face wrapped in gold tissue paper.
he's just bringing a box of raisins, and that's just because i know he'll love handing them out while wearing his birthday hat. otherwise i wouldn't have him bring anything at all.

an airplane cake is awesome, but it won't balance out the fact that your kid will be shamed as the one who brings a single raisin to share with each of his daycare pals. it's sounds like you are trying to lose this parental competition on purpose!! it's bad enough that late august birthdays are prone to get school supplies as gifts...no no, this won't do, you need to give out like Gameboys or something...

Happy Birthday in advance to Yannick!! I can't wait to see the pics
