Creating Tiny Bits of Order Amidst Chaos 5

Next there is a picture of the chocolate two-layer cake I made for my son's 2-year-old birthday. I have never made a cake before. I think I put too much icing in the middle so the top layer slid off. Even though the cake is a mess, it shows one creative way I was determined to help my toddler celebrate his birthday. We couldn't have a party or have any friends over, but I still felt it was a special day because of the cake. It tasted good, even if it looked like a mess. And I had fun making it.
