When you’re celebrating the birthday of a little girl, it’s never a good idea to drop the cake. If you do, then you should expect this sort of response.
I’m now too old to enjoy birthdays. Once you hit 30 every birthday is at best just another day, and at worst a step nearer the grave. So I’d rather they just passed by without any fuss.
However, when you’re a kid every birthday is a big deal, and you want to mark the occasion with lots of presents, lots of friends, a big party, and most importantly a big cake to eat too much of.
Unfortunately, when you have careless, uncoordinated parents, mishaps can happen. Which means the cake may end up all over the table in front of you rather than in your tummy. Cue crying and screaming!
