Photograph of a mother (Marjorie) seated in the center of a table with her eyes closed. She is about to blow out the candles on her birthday cake. The birthday cake is vanilla with chocolate frosting, and has several lit pink candles. The mother has her arms placed around the two young girls that are on each side of her. The child on the left (Lori) is looking at her mother, while the youngest child on the right (Katie) is smiling and looking at the birthday cake. There is a child in the foreground on the far right (David), seen in profile, looking at his mother. In the background are closet doors with children's drawings hanging on them. There is also a baby highchair in the background, slightly in view to the left.
