No! Not a Cake for His Birthday

My son's eight birthday is fast approaching. In three weeks time he'll be celebrating his birthday and two days after that, he is going to get baptized in our church (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints). We are all excited for his baptism! This year, we decided to make his birthday celebration an only "family affair." We would just take him to his fave restaurant, give him a new bike (as gift), and take him to a waterpark (WetZone) in Rockwall. I am sure he would have a blast! For now, he still want to have a birthday party, will all his fave foods, friends, and of course....gifts from his friends. I feel sad for him, but we need to be frugal in order to save our money for some important things.

Anyway, talking back on his birthday, he doesn't want me to bake him a cake nor brownie. Instead, he wants me to make him a fruit cobbler! I don't mind fruit cobbler, for it s yummy and also healthy. Today, I made him a blueberry cobbler and oh boy! He gobbled it! He almost finished the whole plate! And while eating it, he couldn't stop saying 'how good it was!" So glad he saved some for Daddy's dessert tomorrow, lol.
