Ack, suddenly my big baby boy is now 5.  Not sure how that happened so fast.My little man went easy on mama for his cake request:
Ice cream cake.  We made plans on his date night.  He knew exactly what he wanted and he was thrilled when he got it. Over the course of birthday discussions at the beginning of the summer, we realized that Bryant had never built a bear.  This, my friends, is how we create traditions.  We decided that 5 years of age is a great age to build a bear and so, subsequent five year olds in our family will be able to create their own stuffed animals.  This suited Bryant just fine.

He chose a Superman bear with a Superman outfit and the Star Wars theme song.  Oh  yes he did.
