Have the icing. Want the cake.



Backstory

The icing is having photos and information about my daughter after 22 long years of nothing. The cake would be meeting her and developing some form of mutually satisfying relationship.

Perhaps the cake needs to cool a bit more before you can put icing on. I used to get impatient to frost the cake, and it always resulted in a mess. 222 years may seem like a long time to you, but maybe not for the cake. Some cakes just need longer to cool.

I have the icing. All I need now is the cake.

Dragonflower says,

Well, if the cake is cooled and ready for the icing, that is great. Are you ready to become a cake decorator? What would you write on the top?

ps. I understand we are not talking about food here. I wish you the best in this complicated situation.
