生日快樂 -- Little Shine Is Two Years Old

#2016-0924C

Little Shine, my second grandson, is two years old today. To celebrate his birthday, his mom made a special cake herself. The cake looked plain -- simple in style, but it was really "nutritious" -- good for health; what's more, it was in the shape of a heart. The heart of love!

As previously scheduled, Jean and I went to a Classical Poetry Recitation this morning. (You may click and review the Photos, Part One and/or Part Two.) Jean, as a member of the group, participated in the chanting and singing of the poems in the traditional Hô-lo̍k language, while I took pictures of their performances. It seems that we both were so much occupied today that we almost forgot about our grandson's birthday. But it's no problem at all! Little Shine's mom had made a birthday cake for him.

Look! We all had a wonderful time celebrating Little Shine's birthday in the living room; and then, when evening came, we went out together for dinner. "Happy birthday to you, Shine!" we repeated, with lots of smiles and laughs! (Although Shine's dad, who is studying in Hong Kong, could not be here with us in person, we'll definitely be showing him pictures of the birthday party by LINE or by Facebook.)
