K8 turns 12

Last Thursday was K8's 12th Birthday. K7 baked him a chocolate devil's food cake and Mom made her wonderful frosting.

When our children turn 12 and every Birthday thereafter, we have a tradition where Mom and Dad take him or her out for a special meal. K8 asked for a steak dinner, so we took him to the only steak restaurant in town, which happens to be quite good! In accordance with another family tradition, Mom told him his birthing story. It made him smile!

He ate so much at the restaurant, that he didn't have any room left in his belly for cake. He settled for licking the frosting off of the candles, and we waited until dark to dig into the cake and ice cream.
