My mom fucked up a cake she made for my niece about 10 years ago, and we've made sure to tell her "Happy Birtday" every year since

Awww, that's a really nice cake, too. Excellent drawing and writing skills! Not so much on the spelling skills, though… :)

She's normally a phenomenal speller (she devours books), so this was very out of character for her. Luckily she's also happy to laugh at herself. One of the many things I absolutely adore about her.

That drawing is pretty good though! Poor thing doesn't read well but she has an eye for proportion.

She's a talented artist. For a time when she was younger she scored her dream job restoring vintage wooden carousel horses, and went on to do beautiful colored pencil drawings of them with fantasy backgrounds based on their backstories and ornamentation. She's fuckin awesome.

That's cool. I lived in a town with a wooden horse carousel and i definitely appreciate the work that goes into those horses
