Birthday wishes are very important. They are an opportunity to ask for the impossible, to dare to dream, to hope for magic…. or to totally devastate your mother.

Watch this little boy use up his one and only birthday wish to ask for a brand new mom. Trouble is… she is standing right there and probably baked that cake. He says it so matter of factly too. It’s what he wants! He’s dreaming big! It’s his birthday!

I imagine his mom’s got some big dreams too… Like to take that cake into a closet and eat the whole thing by herself.
