birthday

Marshall's school year started at the beginning of September. That same week a little girl in his class celebrated her birthday. His teachers make a big deal about birthdays with crowns, birthday pins, presents, cupcakes, singing etc. Well...my little guy has a birthday in mid August. Not exactly conducive to a celebration at school with his friends. He has been asking since last September if I could make cupcakes for his class so they could sing "happy birfday" to him. His teacher allowed students with summer birthdays (there were only two) to celebrate the last week of school. He was giddy with excitement and he made a special request for green cupcakes...but of course!
