Debby’s husband, Jeff, joined the army and left a few days ago to report for training in Fort Sill, Oklahoma. I wanted to make sure that Debby didn’t spend her birthday alone with Rexton, so I told her to come over, and asked her what kind of cake she wanted. She decided that she wanted tres leches cake, which is one I’ve never made before. I don’t particularly like tres leches cake, because every time I’ve had it, it’s been just plain soggy. But I found a recipe, and made one anyway. Hopefully it was as good as Debby was hoping it would be.
I hope she had a good time spending her birthday with us. I feel bad that Jeff had to go away right before her birthday, and he won’t be back for a few months. I hope to have her and Rexton over a lot, over the next few months while he’s gone, just so she won’t be alone all the time.
