A 15-year-old girl came out to her
parents with an “I'm Gay” cake.
A picture of the cake and her coming
out letter was featured on Ellen
DeGeneres' blog along with a photo of DeGeneres with the caption, “Home
of the GAYke.”
“Good morning parents,” Lauren
wrote.
“I'm gay. I've wanted to tell you
for a long time. I thought doing it this way would be a piece of
cake. I hope you still love me. I mean, it's hard not to love
someone who baked you a cake.”
“All my friends know and still love
me. Your acceptance would be the icing on the cake. I hope you,
much like this cake, are not in tiers.”
“I hope we can look back on this and
say 'boy, this one really takes the cake.'”
“It gets batter.”
“Love, Lauren (sorry for so many
puns).”
In
a update, Lauren wrote: “My dad saw the cake and came into
[the] room and hugged me and laughed. He said he love me and the
cake and the letter and everything was perfect.”
“My mom saw it and cried of
happiness. We hugged and cried together. Then, we all ate the cake
and talked. I am very luck[y] to have such supporting parents and to
have so much support from you guys. Thanks everyone! Have a gay
day!”
