I Have a Spatula . . .

She was moonlighting in a friend’s toy kitchen today. It was a birthday party. There was cake, and more cake, and sprinkles. And there was feeding the ducks. And there was ball pits and trike dare-devilry. It all ended in an exhaustion tantrum. Which didn’t put a damper on any of it.
