Mommy told the challenge of self-collecting, self delivery the 2 heavy cakes with all goodies bags and armed with her DSLR, drove to the school in a slow and steady pace, mindful of every little small hump and turn!
This year school celebration is a totally fresh experience for both Kai and jiejie as the school has a unique and special way of celebrating the children's birthday. The birthday boy/girl, carrying a globe, will walk around a sun(made with cardboard) surrounded with 12 sun rays, each representing a month. Their friends will begin singing, "the world goes round the sun, the world goes round the sun and Ning Xuan is 1...." and it goes on and on until it reaches the current age. And so, Kai has to go round the sun 4 rounds and Xuan has to go round 6 rounds, with each round stopping at their birthday month. With each significant stop, mommy will share a story of them to the teachers and classmates. Quite a special ceremony isn't it?!
My birthday walk!
Kai blew the candle on the "sun" after he finished his 4 rounds of walk around the golden sun to signify his 4th birthday!
Kai chose this design and those who knows Kai well will obviously know the reason!
Very happy with his choice of cake! Kai was thrilled to see the cars on the cake than anything else!
1, 2, 3 blow!
Coincidentally, both of our birthday fall on 22nd of the month, but just 1 month apart.
