For a cake lover, the 4 cakes were only for him over the span of 5 days, the 1st was the Sat's when we had celeb over at our pl. Guess the 4 cakes also symbolise the thanksgiving for his bday. For the past yrs, mama always did a flash back on Ian's life...perhaps this time it can be a little different having the cakes to represent the 4 thanksgiving...the 1st of coz for God in our lives and in our family....its really God's grace that saw us thru the initial mths and yrs of bringing up this boy as it is our 1st experience being parents....now seeing how the boy has grown and how's his faith in God is growing and ever singing his praise whenever he is back at home.....recently he learnt "kumbaya" and "I will make you fishers of men" thru the 'chapel times' at his sch, it just reminded us of how God is slowly growing seed in his life and even singing "The bible is a treasure book" when he comes back from BSF, truly thank God for such moments when truths are being instilled in his heart and trust this seed will grow over the yrs of 'planting and watering'
The 2nd cake is to thank God for family and friends.....guess family is the kinship that's the greatest gift from God on earth and Ian never fails to remember his family whenever he has things to share and even when he does things, he will make sure he counts to make sure there is enough for ah gong, po2, Jiu2, Aunty Lorraine, Dayi and of coz ah baa and ah mu's family....there is just so much love in his heart that is so blessed by the family in his life....and of coz the new friends he made in sch as he comes back daily to tell us of the happenings and it's always gd to hear how he is able to relate to many friends in sch and when mama brings him to sch, there will be some friends ard to greet him "hi" and truly thank God how he has slowly integrated into sch so well without much worries and of coz enjoying every moment of his sch life =)
And this was a cake brought by po2 since he won't get to meet po2 on his bday since daddy has take lve and he has an aeroplane toy on top of the cake and we truly thank God for the providence in our family.....being a single income family, we never expected there is so much He could give us and we never had to worry abt meeting the ends meet. Though the boy doesn't know the value of money yet, he knows daddy works hard to bring 'bread' home so that he can go to sch and have toys and even holidays! Most important, we have God in our home and He is the true provider of life and all
And the 4th cake was from dayi which was a yummy chocolate cupcake from Awfully chocolate and the boy just love it....the 4th thanksgiving would be for a boy who is truly a gift to both his daddy and mummy as there is much joy ard when he is ard and as he grows up, he is becoming more sensitive to things and wanting to be a loveable boy (tho there are still moments of tough-ness) but he's really growing out of his 'baby-ness' and truly into a boy as we see how he will wanna make mama and daddy happy and when mama's not happy, he will make sure mama is fine by looking into mama's face and keep calling 'Mummy, are u ok?' and even asked if he could kiss mama when she's angry hahaha coz that's the moment he really fears hehehe despite his endless reasoning but we could see how his mind is growing with more thots and creativity and just appreciating this phase of his life when he's ever keen to learn and just easy to be disciplined and for that reason, it pays to be a stay home mum coz u see 'returns' as u reap! On such a day, we just wanna wish our boy a truly truly Blessed 4th bday and we are so looking fwd to another new yr of 'adventure' and 'fun' seeing how God is moulding you to a boy after His heart!
