[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]May I suggest buying a cake to eat that day with the grandparents and baking your child’s homemade cake on a different day when you are home? I am fairly certain a child of any age would be more than pleased to get two cakes instead of one, and this would save you a lot of cake gymnastics. [/quote]

Yeah, for real OP. Have you lost your mind?

The answer is you bake your homemade cake at home and eat it at home-on her actual birthday or the day of your choosing.  You buy a cake at grandparents house to celebrate.  Or a pie. Or any other fun dessert you can stick a candle in and light.  Don’t make this hard for zero reason.[/quote]

The "zero reason" is that a parent/grandparent is dying.  Help her plan her family's last memories with that person the way she wants (which is completely do-able) or stay out of it. Or at least give her gentle support in embracing an alternative this year.  But you don't need to be such a jerk about her desire to incorporate a family tradition and a tiny degree of normalcy into a tumultuous, emotional, and painful time.  [/quote]

OP here. Exactly this. Thank you for this message, PP.[/quote]
