You are 4

A wonderful milestone for us. You started choosing a birthday theme since you were two, its lovely to watch what your favorite stuff is... and for the past 3 years its just cars or something about cars. This year you wanted a Pirate Birthday all through the year but towards the end you were fascinated with the car wash concept. So I suggested that and Lo, your eyes sparkled and there was an immediate YES.

Daddy and I wanted a simple birthday for you but you made a huge guest list and I see you have qualities like your father :-), you like to have everybody around you. 

So you had about 4 birthday celebrations.

1) at school with your teachers and classmates

2) Grace & Genevive came over with cakes and treats as they could not attend your party
3) Your Birthdate with something you wanted to experience - KidZania. Daddy and A.Serena took that Wednesday off and took you and your cousins and you had such a fun and interesting day that you got back home at 7. You all had a great time, so mummy had a treat for all of you - a Thai menu that I put together with a friend Paulita that Tara helped me storm it together. Everybody enjoyed it. 

 

4) Your big Car Wash Birthday Party - You had a 50+ guests and a fantabulous party. Hudson did all the amazing decoration. He is truly an inborn artist. Daddy, Stephen (hudson's friend) and I tried our best to help him. You really really loved the idea and had so much fun. Another thing you really loved was the Car wash cake that Attracta did for you and the cup cake Caterpillar with lady birds that Rene (Paulita's mum) surprised you with. Both these creative women had your tummy full. You enjoyed the most with Audrey and Anika. I made a tow mater Pinata for you that you so wanted to trash on your own, but it was so tough to rip apart :-). you had loads of fantastic and interesting gifts. Thank you everyone who took time out for Gareth. He truly loves you all.
