Scratch

Happy birthday, Tata. It all started as a simple idea (at the last minute) to make 45 cupcakes to celebrate your birthday. I thought we'd squeeze the small celebration into the community groups guys' meeting Monday night. Surprise you. No big deal. Oh, right, except I'm unprepared 100%. I'm suffering from depression that presents itself as complete chaos in my head. Including making simple cupcakes.

You ended up with a beautiful "surprise," an amazing cake (thank you, Jan!) & 12 cupcakes (from me & Danijela). I must "toot toot" my horn because the frosting & cupcakes were made from scratch. The sad part of the story is it was primarily motivated by my fear of leaving the house. I love you, Dejan. I love those that kept my head up too.

Thanks for one of the best birthday surprise parties I've ever had. And thank you Danijela for saying, "Tata, let's go home. I want to see the balloons."

Precious. Priceless. Thank you all for making it fun and memorable.
