Happy Birthday Ama!

Yesterday was my mom's 60th birthday. The day before, I had prepared an audio visual presentation which featured pictures of her with Griffin from the time Griffin was still a baby till the present. At the end of AVP was a video of Griffin singing Happy Birthday then he says' "I love you Ama!" This was Griffin's gift to her and she really loved it.

When I picked Griffin up in school, he was sad. He told me about a jacket or costume in school which he couldn't get, but I don't exactly know why he felt bad. He was really feeling sad, that seeing Ama's cake did not cheer him up much as he was singing Happy Birthday in a sad voice. He had even cried during the candle blowing because he only wanted to blow the zero while my mom was to blow the 6 , however when he blew out the candle, both candles were blown so he began crying.

After a little while though, he was ok already and back to his usual self. He ate 2 sticks of barbecue, the Spongebob choco lollipop and cake. We only had a simple celebration at lunch time, with palabok, barbecue, inihaw na baboy and pichi-pichi.

We were supposed to eat at Tong Yang that night but at around 5:30 pm, my dad had a seizure so he had to be brought to the hospital. He is currently admitted at UST hospital so that his doctor could check on him. Hopefully, they'll be back home soon.
