Me this morning: “Oh look, I’m totally going to be on time for work! It’s time for me to leave now. I think I’ll decorate a cake with Juniper.”

Yup. I was late for work because I decided to decorate a cake. (Totally worth it.) Oma’s birthday was yesterday, and we are going to visit her tonight after work. I baked a quick box cake last night, frosted it this morning, gave Juniper all the sprinkles, and let her go to town. (I did the awesome pink frosting too, haha!) She was SO HAPPY. I enjoyed watching her decide, very carefully, where each sprinkle should go. Her crazy bedhead just added to the already high adorableness levels.

Such a happy way to start a day. I’m really glad I took the time to do this, instead of rushing off to work.
