Happy Birthday Jacob

Yesterday was my son, Jacob's, birthday. He turned 28 years old! He is Down Syndrome, but actually the smartest man I know! I have a fairly high IQ, but he comes up with simple ideas and solutions that I am amazed at! He also volunteers to help and is a step ahead, which I find it hard to meet another man who is like that!

We celebrated with a home-made ice-cream birthday cake which is simple to make:

Line a 9x12 pan with ice-cream sandwiches, layer a half gallon of your favorite ice-cream, then layer with a container of Cool Whip ... freezing in between each addition. Then write your message on it and freeze until serving!
