So this year, Eva and Solomon got to share their birthday celebration. It was on a Sunday, 7th August, which was in between both their actual birthdays and also happened to be Ah Lek E E's actual birthday! So it was a triple celebration!
Anyway, first, the week before, Eva celebrated her actual birthday at school with her classmates. During recess, I went to her class with the packets of junk food to be handed out to her classmates, and also her birthday cake. She requested for a ladybird cake again! She brought a ladybird cake to school already last year, but it seems she likes it a lot! :)
Claire did not want to come over from her class to join in the fun, so her classmates and teachers serenaded her with the birthday song in three languages!
Well, last Sunday, we celebrated at home. There was supposed to be swimming first. The first batch of kids got to swim for a while before it started to pour and the lifeguard shooed them all away! The second batch of kids (after art class) never got to swim at all! Luckily I had already planned to have the party upstairs, instead of by the poolside, because I was worried about the heat! It has been really hot and hazy these days, so I figured upstairs we could party in air-conditioned comfort. Instead, it poured cats and dogs and the wind was crazy, like a typhoon!
Anyway, this celebration was, like I said, for Eva, Solomon and Lek E E's birthday. Besides immediate family, my Aunty also brought my cousin who was visiting from Canada, and another cousin's son who was visiting from Taiwan! It was nice to catch up. The kids also had their fun with all the indoor gadgets like the iPad, computer and tv!
So Eva is now 5 and Solomon will be 3 next week! Happy Birthday Eva and Solomon! Mummy and Daddy love you! :)
