My baby turns 17 today!
She's thinking of becoming a pastry chef! That's her first creation from her Easy-Bake Oven and this is a cake she made earlier this year...
She's 17! Next thing I know she's going to look like this...

Gosh, they grow up quickly. I've got a little tear pricking my eyes because my daughter is only 3, but I know as quick as a flash I'll be writing 'my baby is 17 today' and the thought makes my heart sink.
Happy Birthday to your daughter, she has grown into a beauty. And a talented one at that, the cake is gorgeous.

A very Happy Birthday to your beautiful daughter, Lauren. She is not only beautiful, but clearly very talented! Wow -- I don't know anyone who can decorate a cake like that! It's fabulous.
And isn't it just astounding how our kids get older, yet we remain forever young? :-P I need to believe that -- my older girl will be 24 in February. ACK!

What a sweetheart. Happy Birthday Lauren!!
Cindy-They grow up before you know it--what a beautiful young lady! My daughter had an easy bake too--I'm afraid she was not as inspired to greater things as Lauren :) I left a link to you on my today's post! Thanks again for your help :)
Happy Birthday to Lauren. Cindy...they grow so fast. I know you know that! Hope you guys have a special day.
Happy Birthday to Lauren! What a beauty! Just shows you that the best creations her beautiful and talented mama did weren't blue and white!!! ha ha! Seriously I know you are so proud. Much hugs!!! === gayla

Happy birthday, Lauren!!!!
Cindy, she has almost exact coloring as my girl, who will be 18on the 10th! The pic with the Lion King shirt holding the dessert - almost the splitting image!! My girl had a bob with bangs at that age too!
Happy 17th to your sweet Lauren. How fun seeing her as she was as a little girl. Love that hair and freckles on her nose. My 3 boys all had red hair, different shades and lots of freckles.
Have a great celebration.
Congrats Cindy!
and Lauren...... looks like job well-done mom!!!!
love, kelee
Happy Birthday! She's lovely :)
My stepson just graduated from the California School of Culinary Arts Le Cordon Bleu and they have an awesome (if on the expensive side) pastry program (there is a totally official name for it that I really don't know. He did the full program.) Best of luck!
