The seven-year-old wanted a strawberry Minecraft cake for their birthday. The thirteen-year-old thought that sounded like a fun project.
For their birthday, the 8-year-old has elected to play Minecraft. There are presents, cake, a piñata filled with candy… all waiting. All less exciting, apparently, than Minecraft.
So far, we’ve built a dragon watch tower, aquarium, & rollercoaster. The kid is sublimely happy.
I don’t really understand cakes that aren’t chocolate.
