This year, just before my birthday arrived, I was thinking…..F#%@. My birthday is coming and it’s school holiday time. That means instead of having the day or week off, I have to work doubly hard, which is moving more places carrying a heavy Sony idiot box strapped to my belly and threatening my brain cells to be ten times more tolerant. I have a crazy four year old, what do you expect? Well, the week has come and almost gone and I have been having the most fabulous birthday week!!!

Firstly, I have not received ever, so many birthday wishes in my entire life! It just tells me that despite being in hibernation (because I look and more importantly, feel like a hideously ill bag lady), there are still people out there who are thinking of me. Thank you SO MUCH all of you.

I am completely overwhelmed by the efforts of yours to pick up the phone, email me or text me; some have even bought me presents, baked me a cake!!! I haven’t received presents for yonks! And surprise birthday parties and dinners. WOW!!! I am truly, truly blessed. And totally undeserving of all this attention……..

THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART. THANK YOU, GOD.

Tee has been apologising that she hasn’t gotten me a present apart from the dozen home made birthday cards, which I cherish more than anything else in the world. It is because she has been seeing me receive presents from people all week and for some reason, feels guilty. Or maybe she sees my excitement whenever I get a present and wants to be able to invoke the same effect on me. Little does she know that she does already, a million times more.

This birthday holiday week, we have had a wonderful picnic with friends at the TTDI park where I had cake, candles and a birthday song; a fabulous trip to the hills where we had more causes to celebrate, a few fantastic dinners, a great day swimming and hanging out with friends, and tomorrow, another full day of activities. And Saturday and Sunday too. I think Tee will suffer from post holiday depression once the holidays are over. And I will sleep for a month.

Just some of the things Tee did this week for the first time all on her own:

Fed rabbits carrots, rode on donkey, rode on horse, held a butterfly, patted a dog, went on the monkey bars (and screamed blue murder because she was stuck in mid-air hanging!), caught tadpoles and fishes, became a Japanese Geisha, danced to disco music with friends, played dress up………..Swinging off at a tangent, it’s bedtime so I need to sleep as I have a very early morning tomorrow.

At the picnic with her beloved boyfriend of three years now. Now what could bring her more joy??? She absolutely loves this boy to bits!

.

Feeding fresh raw carrots to some lucky rabbits….it really was their lucky day that they got to eat carrots!

.

And letting them nibble rabbit food out of her hand. Her finger even got bitten! But that didn’t stop her. My girl has grown up so fast. Last year, she wouldn’t go near those rabbits….

.

Riding the mule by herself…..she was also terrified up to end of last year, as evident here…..

.

Notice her legs??? She had them up THE ENTIRE RIDE. No wonder she has such strong leg muscles!!!

.

Riding a horse/pony? It was different from the white ass above but they certainly look alike, don’t they? She had wanted a brown horse but out of convenience, the blonde horse trainer told her that this grey horse was very special. Luckily, she didn’t make a fuss.

.

Isn’t my Geisha gorgeous??? She was even taught to pose like a real Geisha with her hands crossed daintily. What a natural!

.

Dressing up like a princess, as all girls do…..

I certainly did not.

Nite folks xx I love you guys.
