… if any of you can guess the inspiration for Rose’s birthday cake?  

I thought it turned out cute, but I pretty much had to explain it to everyone that came to her birthday party!  🙂 
I’ll be back with more pictures soon… We had so much fun!

    Is the inspiration from the first snowfall of the year coming on her birthday?

    It made me think of the Sound of Music! (I know it will not be it, but gosh how I enjoyed that show as a child!)

    Well, I was completely clueless until I read the comment above. lol 🙂
    I'm struck by your beautiful design and work, though. You are getting to be SO stinkin' good at this! Really, most folks would pay good money for a cake like that I'm sure. Happiest birthday wishes to your sweet little girl.

    Happy Birthday Rose!!!!

    Well, I saw your other post so I know the answer but my first thought had been something to do with snow in the Alps, but it didn't make sense. And then The Sound of Music popped into my head, but that's as far as I got. The cake is so pretty. I am sure Rose just loved having her birthday.

    Rose's "cream colored pony" earlier gave it away… besides, like Rose, the Sound of Music was MY movie growing up… along with Mary Poppins. Hey – that would make an awesome birthday theme party, too, wouldn't it?

Prayer of Mothers

Father in heaven, grant me the grace to appreciate the dignity which you have conferred on me. Let me realize that not even the Angels have been blessed with such a privilege—to share in your creative miracle and bring new Saints to heaven. Make me a good mother to all my children after the example of Mary, the Mother of your Son. Through the intercession of Jesus and Mary I ask your continued blessings on my family. Let us all be dedicated to your service on earth and attain the eternal happiness of your kingdom in heaven. Amen.
