7th Birthday



She wanted to have a treasure hunt on  her birthday. So, when she woke up the first thing that she received was a clue to her birthday surprise. Follow the clue "what can you see in the middel of the sea?"


 










She was able to answer all the riddles and find the clues to her treasured gift. She searched under the table, behind the couch, up in the rooms, outside the dirty kitchen, in the ref and in the calendar.

 And the special gift was "Family."








She celebrated her "Siete anyos" with her friends in McDonalds. This was her first birthday celebration in the fastfood joint and the first children's party for ALL her classmates after the pandemic. They had so much fun during the celebrations.

It is a miracle that she did not have any complications nor did the mother had any relapse during the pregnancy and after giving birth.  We started the day with a feeling this was going to be a special day. We had plans to carry out chores for the day but God has a different plan. The baby was giving signals that it was ready to see the world. We decided to go ahead with our plans but be ready for any definitive signs from the baby. At lunch time, the contractions are becoming regular and steonger. The Mom had that gut feeling this is it. So, instead of going to Manila, we changed plans and drove to Valenzuela. We were expecting heavy traffic, so I had to summon my "E" driv...
