A good try...

Dennis' birthday was almost a month ago. I struggle.

I thought I'd be a good wife and bake him a coffee cake for breakfast since we weren't having an actual party of any kind. I even found some candles.

I went to go get the camera and came back to find all the candles had fallen over... Upon closer inspection you could see what happened to them. Next year I'll remember to let the cake cool before inserting wax candles, and then maybe we won't have to eat melted wax frosting in our cake. Go figure.

Happy Birthday Dear!

And here's a scowl from Maylee... It's as if she's saying, "duh, Mom!"
