Happy Mother's Day! I hope you have a beautiful day of celebrating with your mothers, children, wives, or other loved ones. Of course we should honor and thank our mothers every day, but I do love that there is one day a year set aside especially to remind us of them. To help you celebrate, I want to share this adorable "Recipe for Baking a Cake with Your Child's Help". It made me smile and think of my little ones, as well as my dear, patient mother who is very familiar with this recipe.
