Noah had a terrific week! He's a 6 year old now and celebrated his birthday with two parties. His first celebration was midnight on his actual birthday (September 19). His Dad baked him a confetti cake per his request, and his Aunty Josie, his sisters Giana and Leila, his Dad and I sang "Happy Birthday!" where he was able to open his first gift and make his first wish as he blew out his candles. He wasn't feeling too good this day but we were very blessed because he perked up within hours of his actual birthday. His second birthday celebration (Superhero/Graffiti party), was at his Uncle Jun and Aunty Grace's house last Sunday. The backyard was raining balloons and we also had a 7ft Hulk made out of balloons since Hulk is his favorite. His Aunty Jill, provided an art activities for kids to color graffiti letters to make a name plate, and a wall of canvas for kids to paint with water-based non-toxic paint. A friendly clown came to face paint and Spiderman made a special appearance to host games and other fun activities. Noah was SO happy and in his 8:00pm devotional prayer, he thanked God for blessing him with a great birthday party and for the strength he had that day, as he felt great all day long. Thank you to all our very special family and friends who helped us with the party, for those who celebrated this very special milestone and for all of you who sent gifts and birthday greetings. Noah felt all of God's love that day!
