      My friend Naomi and her husband came over a few weeks ago and brought a delicious chocolate cake. We walked up the road to pick cherries and sat on our back porch eating the cake with fresh cherries and tall glasses of milk. She told me that she thought the recipe was her grandma’s secret recipe when she was younger. She called her when she wanted to make it and her grandma told her to go to Hershey’s Web site and the recipe was there. Very funny! It is delicious and perfectly moist, and you will love it!





     When frosting a cake, let it cool completely then frost it with a thin layer of frosting. Put it in the freezer for 30 minutes, then take it out and finish frosting it. This is a called a crumb layer and will allow you to easily frost without pulling crumbs into the frosting.

It took a little while to sink in but she’s exci It took a little while to sink in but she’s excited now! 😂 I really try to make space for my kid’s emotions. She asked Tyler, “So dad…are you ACTUALLY really excited that it’s a boy?” 😂 I told her, “It’s okay that you’re disappointed because you wanted a sister!” And it took her a few weeks to process and now she talks about how much she loves baby brother.

Oh and before the gender reveal she said, “If it’s a girl I’ll say yayyyyy!!! And if it’s a boy I’ll say whomp whomp…”

They have been with me since before day 1 of IVF with this baby! It’s been a ride for the whole family! 💙💙💙 #goldie_says #ivfsuccess #genderreveal #itsaboy #infertility #infertilityjourney

The craziness of our #parcellsundayselfie each wee The craziness of our #parcellsundayselfie each week! 🤪 I subbed for the kid’s Sunday school class today and was sitting next to Goldie in singing time. She took both of my hands in hers, leaned over and whispered in my ear, “You got a lesson prepared?” 😂 Yeah, girl. I got you 👊🏼 It didn’t really matter to her it turns out because she decided to be a class clown while mom and dad were in her class which affirms my belief and gratitude in good teachers who aren’t their parents 😂 Hope y’all had a good day with your people! #sundaybest #sundayschool
