Handmade, hand drawn

 
My son is five years old today!!  I really, truly cannot believe he is five and neither can he actually; this morning (after seeming more pensive than usual) he asked me if I was sure he was five today.  He also wanted to know when the grand event happened...while he was sleeping?   
Of course a newly minted five year old boy is a perfect chance to get some baking into what would otherwise be a typical studio day.  His request? Strawberry cupcakes with blue icing.

They are beautiful...I remember that day so well...hearing your voice, the news that he had red hair (a secret wish of mine), knowing you (his mama but my daughter) were fine, and then...seeing him and holding him. One of life's very best gifts. I too celebrate his birthday. Nana
