Belle recently took a Wilton Kids' Cake Decorating 101 class at our local Joann fabric and craft store. She strode well ahead of us into the classroom, eager to learn this craft that remains a mystery to her mother. Yes, I can depend on excellent curriculum and teaching guides to help the girls as they move beyond basic mathematics into algebra, but cake decorating is definitely beyond my skill set. Who would have thought that math would become more of a comfort zone for me, while frosting, fondant and cake decorating utensils would make my palms sweat? Ah, but this serves to remind me that I am indeed a work in progress and that I am constantly changing--even surprising myself!

| She is fearless. I love that about her, and at the same time it scares me to death! :) |

| The eager cake decorating student. |
 |
| Belle could hardly wait for instruction to begin. |
 |
| She learned how to frost a cake, as well as make dots, stars, leaves and ribbons. |

| It's a major award!! |

| Stay tuned in one month for part 2, when Belle takes Wilton's Double Dip Fondant Fun class! |
