This cake was made for someone very special.
My oldest turned 10 today. He’s the boy who made me a mom, and now he’s in double digits.
Ever since we moved to Huntsville, his birthday cakes have come from a wonderful local bakery that never misses on design, flavor, or service. So a couple of months ago, he surprised me by asking if I would make his cake this year. He wanted my sourdough chocolate cake.
Of all the cakes he could have chosen, he picked the one made in our kitchen, by his mama. I don’t think he knows how much that meant to me.
He’s smart, brave, and kind, and his heart is so thoughtful. I’m grateful every day that I get to be his mom.
Happy 10th birthday, sweet boy. 💙
