The idea of making birthday wishes over lit cupcakes is not exactly an original but who cares, all 15 of us had such a warm fuzzy feeling this afternoon as we celebrated Mommy's 78th birthday doing the candle-on-a-cupcake wishing thing. The kids (we call them kids but they're ages range from 13 to 20 years old) organized everything with a little help from their youthful auntie Mel. And the result was a tear jerking, heartwarming ceremony where each of us recited our special message for Mom while holding our lit cupcakes. Mom blew out the candles after each message. And of course the most special candle was the one held by Dad who gave a lengthy, candle-melting, long and winding but very touching speech that left us all teary eyed. And he ended it with a passionate kiss ma-la Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr.. pant pant... see pic below.
