Ready for Birthday

Above: Presents I'd wrapped up for Rae's birthday.

I had just finished wrapping birthday presents. Yes, presents. It is Rae's Birthday, today. She is SEVEN (7). I am terribly proud of her and just cannot believe this little 2.8kg baby has grown into a little lady. She is now still underweight and petite according to the normal benchmark growth for all seven year old girls. But at least she doesn't have to join the TAF (trim and fit) club in school for overweight school girls.. which is a relief!

Well, I had so many presents stored up at home, I just couldn't decide what to give her. After all, I buy them at my convenience and give it as rewards of achievements, birthdays, special occasions like gifts from her tooth fairy (when she dropped her tooth) and recently when she has shown her improvement in her academic report. And not to forget, every gift you give a child, you have to give one to the other sibilng. Fair and square, so not to be left out.

So tonight, after thinking over, I wrapped equal number of presents in different designs for them both, for the occasion of RAE's birthday. I had also just done up the goody bags for the party on Sunday. And I also packed the accessories for the manicure and tatoo party I had decided to let the girls enjoy during the party. After all, I don't want yet another MacDonals party.

She is sound asleep in her slumberland, or her fairyland, as she calls it. Her reason for going to sleep - to meet up with Flora, her imaginary fairy..

Sweet Dreams, My Dear Girl

Happy Happy Birthday to you too
