First paying cupcake job!

When I made those root beer float cupcakes, I never thought it would help me get a job as a cupcake maker (is there a name for that kind of a job?). David thinks "cupcake-atier" should be the name but I think that's a little too much.  There must be something simpler, but it does sound fun.  
Anyway, I posted the cupcakes on facebook and my friend Katy saw them and wanted some too so I brought them to her house.  She had lots of other friends over and they loved the cupcakes too, in fact, so much that one person asked me to make cupcakes for her daughter's birthday.  And here they are:
I was a little worried when she picked out a Valentine's themed design, but thank goodness I was able to find lots of pink and white and red candies and with a little of imagination, designed my own cupcakes using what I had found.  They were a hit and the family has asked me to make cupcakes for the next 2 children's birthdays! So I guess I'm in the business now!
