It's My Birthday!A year passed by and along came the first birthday celebration for the new-comer; a simple gathering, celebrated with atok (grandfather), nenek (grandmother), auntie, mama and abah (father). You didn’t even know how to blow out the candle when we finished singing you your birthday song. However, your eyes indeed told us that you understood that the celebration was dedicated to you. The presents really tickled your enthusiasm and impatience. They were yet another exciting element in your whole new world of wonders and curiosities. You held, you grabbed, you pulled, you seized, and everything eventually ended up wet inside your mouth. On the rest of the day, you climbed, you stumbled, you laughed and you cried as well, as you were a fine example of a happy, healthy toddler.
Everyone, mama especially, would scream every time when they noticed you were doing your unsafe stunt acts again and again.
We all compassionately care for you and love you profoundly.
Happy 1st birthday to you!
