Service Cake

Today I was inspired by my sister in law Laura.  She is a wonderful example of those talented people who make time to serve others even though their lives are busy.  She has a severly autistic daughter who demands a lot of her time and all of us would give her the get out of giving free card because she already has enough service to give to her own family.  This doesn't stop her though from doing what she can for others.  She is very artistic and loves to create things.  My favorite cards our homemade ones that she has designed herself.  She is also very good at making wedding cakes.  You name it she can create it.  To earn a little extra, she makes cakes for close family and friends.   She posted a picture recently to our MiteE Team web site and I thought "beautiful another cake from Laura".  and then I read her comment about the cake and almost cried.  This wasn't just another one of her cakes this was her service cake.  A girl in her neighborhood had wanted to learn how to make wedding cakes so Laura taught her on a cake that she was giving to another girl in the neighborhood who was getting married and couldn't afford to buy a cake.  That was a double service cake.  She shared her talent and her cake.  Thank-you Laura for sharing your talents and your story you made my day.
