03/18/2008 HAPPY 6TH BIRTHDAY, SLAYDE!

Slayde is opening his first card and present! He had to wait until after Kindergarten (at noon) before he could open his presents! Klayton gets up too early for school and Shelle goes to work at 4:00 am, so they decided that his birthday present opening would be at noon! Shelle did take store bought cup cakes to school to his class for his 6th birthday! Now the schools won't let you bring homemade items to school to eat! I use to bake cup cakes with a penny, nickel, dime or quarter in the bottom of the cup cake. Of course, the money was wrapped in tin foil and I would always tell the students to be careful when eating the cup cakes. It was always fun to see who got the quarter because they were the big winner. I think all my children would remember me doing this for them, Shelle wanted to do it for Slayde, but when she called the school to make sure she could, they said, "NO"! So Shelle, covered nickels, dimes and quarters and taped them to the bottom of the store bought cup cakes!!! Slayde's class thought that it was neat and that is all that matters! HAPPY "6TH" BIRTHDAY!!!
