(except for my own, that is!) i bake a whole cake, then cut it in half - the nonbirthday half goes in the freezer for another time. we have not done half the candles although that's an interesting idea - or the correct number of candles and then a teeny 1/2 candle to indicate the six month mark! when the girl was little, there was always a small present to mark the day - but not so now that she's grown. funny that other new englanders do the same half-birthday thing! so feel free to take it and adapt to your own situations! kids, especially, love it!chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15936112592592381114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35152765.post-28533597318403015142010-03-20T12:15:05.623-04:002010-03-20T12:15:05.623-04:00that's a great idea! to ensure we didn't f...that's a great idea! to ensure we didn't feel left out when i was a sibling's birthday, my parents always made sure the person whose birthday it wasn't also got a couple of (small) presents. it made it all much more bearable!The Archaeologisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18135140496485672946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35152765.post-31493409087339716472010-03-19T19:58:59.011-04:002010-03-19T19:58:59.011-04:00This was funny.
