We celebrated my lil girl's birthday last January 16. It was just so simple, we bought our baby a big cupcake and put some topping in it, lighted a number 2 candle on it and let the girl blow it. Then weekend followed, Rose my friend, threw Jadyn a small feast as her late birthday celebration at her place. We had fun although there were only 7 of us including the two husbands. She received a barbie doll and a floating swan boat from Rose and a ten-dollar cash from Annie eventhough she'd already given her a big girly bike last Christmas.
On that very same day, I was contemplating on how we celebrated her first birthday in the Philippines differently. We had the whole house full of small children and adults. It was quite a grand birthday indeed. Lots of foods were served on the table, a dozen of balloons and a filipino kind ice cream in a cone. Hmm I miss my home country!
