After a whole year of waiting, waiting and a bit more waiting the long awaited day arrived. This was the day that Mr Cheeky would get his Peter Rabbit cake. The moment we cut into his Fireman Sam cake on his 3rd birthday, his 4th birthday cake was already in the planning. I was nervous about this cake though, we are talking about a legend here...everyone knows what Peter Rabbit looks like and I was meant to create it out of icing and sponge. Now the finished result turned out more like a rabbit who had enjoyed too many cakes himself but Mr Cheeky didn't mind the slightly rotund rabbit with comical ears, it was his cake and his Peter Rabbit.
We celebrated his special day with the people we love the most and enjoyed a lovely roast dinner and made sure there were plenty of balloons as requested.
Of course birthdays are often a time to reminisce over the years and as I look back on my son's short life I of course fill to the brim with love and tears. He is a delight to be with, such a colourful character and a unique personality. He has been hard work at times as he is strong willed but abounds in love and affection. He still loves me tucking him in bed each night and cuddles in the morning and I hope this continues a while longer yet. My baby boy turned 4, praise the Lord!
