5th April 2008
Later the same day, we celebrated Monique's 7th birthday.
This is Monique with cousin Rita (and half of Nathanael). We cut her chocolate cake into the shape of a number seven.
Our tradition is for the birthday 'person' to choose what they would like for dinner and dessert and who they would like to share their celebration with. This time, Monique shared her birthday with her cousins, Rita, Nathanael, and Abby. Usually we have dinner, then open the gifts. Then return to the table to sing Happy Birthday and cut the cake, and have dessert.
She got the aforementioned kit and rug, etc, and also a cushion-sized latch patch with a butterfly on it. From the relatives in Wellington, she received a pretty dress, DVD, and a voucher to spend. The children always enjoy spending their vouchers! And, now she is old enough to go to Every Girls Rally. Yay!
