Brody's half birthday was today! He is now, officially, 2 1/2 years old! You may be asking yourself what a half birthday is; you are in luck! It is simply a reason to celebrate an ordinary day. Growing up it was a day that we (I share my half birthday too) did something fun and exciting. It could have be anything from something special for dinner or a trip to Silver Dollar City... but it has always been a day that I looked forward to. There’s not much magic in calculating your half-birthday. Just take your birthday and add six months; for example, someone born on January 1 would have a half-birthday of July 1. That means that some unlucky people have no half birthday! Oh the travesty!
I made Brody half an angel food cake and decorated it with strawberries cut in half and blueberries. He had 2 1/2 candles to blow out after we sang "Happy half birthday to you!"
When it came to eating the cake, Brody didn't want to halve any of it. He wanted the WHOLE thing! Right after we finished singing he sunk his face right into the middle of the cake! Mmmm...
