Birthday boy

23rd May 2014


Since Erwyn has gone to the kindergarten this year, we've decided to throw a little party for him in his class.

We bought a birthday cake and brought it over during their break time.  The teachers gathered the children to sit down while Erwyn stood before the crowd.  He was a bit shy but excited.  We waited for the teacher to light the candle but it appeared that the lighter had gone for a holiday.  Erwyn was a bit disappointed and asking Mommy why the candle is not lighted up.  Mommy promised to do that at home later when he went back.  The children sang birthday song to Erwyn in English and Mandarin.  Elyse, who was supposed to be in her class, came over to Erwyn's class with her teacher's permission and celebrated Erwyn's birthday together with the little ones.  The teacher cut the cake and distributed to the rest.




It was just a simple celebration but it did not end there.  After the school was over, Mommy brought Erwyn and Elyse back home and as promised, Mommy took out the candle and lighted it up, then we sang birthday song to Erwyn again.  Erwyn was very happy.  Looks like the fire on the candle did some magic trick on him.  He blew it over and over again.  Finally, time to open the presents!

Few days before Erwyn's birthday, Ah Gong brought Erwyn out to a shop and asked him to choose his own presents.  Little boy was so kind and considerate, for every present he chose for himself he also took one more for his sister.




Thank you everyone for the presents, ang pows and birthday wishes.  There are simply too many of you to mention one by one.  We are so grateful to be surrounded by loving brothers and sisters, aunties and uncles in Christ.  And thank you God for all His blessings on Erwyn. 

A little guess on what's Erwyn's favourite present?  The Superman shirt!!!  Not to mention that it is also the most expensive present...
