Last night’s North Carolina ruling paired with my own sorrow that I may never have a child has me sitting here literally “ugly crying” over your post. Please promise to love that son no matter who he end up loving in the future. The world will be a better place for it.

Thx for sharing about your little guys. We have 3 boys–all 3 were born 19 mo. apart, with my oldest just over 3 when the youngest was born. Boys are just delightful and I love, love, love being a ‘boy Mom’! Our 2nd was a bundle of energy like yours. If I described my boys with a color, he would be bright, sunshiny yellow, with a tinge of orange! Lots of energy, always smiling and laughing, playing tricks on his brothers. Thanks to God, he has ‘bookends’ that are calmer!

Yum about the cake; I am making it first thing in the morning. Thank you!

Ashley- This looks fantastic. I can’t wait to try this one, only I’m going to have to wait for it to cool down a bit before I turn on the oven. I love cakes that stand on their own without any need for a frosting.

This is such a beautiful post. I don’t have children yet but I was able to feel everything you wrote about. And the cake sounds very familar to an Oatmeal Snacking Cake recipe that I found in Cook’s Illustrated. Definately one to be kept for the ages.

okay, I rarely rush right from reading a blog post to trying the recipe, but in this case I did EXACTLY that. it met my after-dinner craving perfectly, and since we have guests coming in very late tonight, I’m guessing they will enjoy it as well as a decadent breakfast!

thank you so much.

the cake & your writing are equally lovely–the former looks so good that I’m mentally assessing whether or not I have the ingredients in the house right now!

not a Mama yet, but I am a proud godmother & auntie, and sometimes you just need to hold a baby, and smell that baby-head smell, and know that everything is somehow right with the world.
