12 years ago today my life drastically changed. There was a baby. And he was mine. And I had to, like, take care of him and stuff.
It was crazy, man. It still is crazy, if we’re being honest.
12 years of being a mama. It’s an amazing thing.
12 years with the absolute sweetest little boy I’ve ever met. I’m always telling people what a great kid he is, but I don’t think they fully get it. Really, you guys, GREATEST KID EVER.
I love him to pieces, is what I’m trying to say.
So, to make his birthday extra special, I served him up some Funfetti Cake Waffles for breakfast. With a big blob of ice cream and a healthy drizzle of chocolate syrup, natch.
His day is off to a pretty good start.
Happy Birthday, Elijah. Love you always, no matter what.
Funfetti Cake Waffles
Ingredients
- 1 box Funfetti Cake Mix
- 1 cup water
- 1/3 cup oil
- 3 large eggs
Instructions
- Mix together the cake mix, water, oil, and eggs in a large bowl until well combined.
- Drop 2 1/2 ice cream scoops of the cake batter into a preheated Belgian waffle iron and cook for three minutes. Use less cake batter if you're using a smaller waffle iron.
- Serve with a scoop of ice cream and a drizzle of chocolate syrup.
