First we started with Felipe's birthday on Tuesday. He turned 13 and was able to go to youth group for the first time the next night. He had been waiting for that for a long time!
Then we had Rodolfo's birthday on Wednesday. He is our main house parent. He turned 36 but I don't know that he was as excited as Felipe was!
On Friday we had 2 birthdays. Wesler turned 3. When I first showed him the cake that morning he was very excited but when he had a crowd he got a little shy and wouldn't give us a smile.
Yay! Money! :)
On Saturday we celebrated Pat's birthday. "Tia Patty" is here every Saturday giving English lessons and loving on our kids. She is well loved around here. And the more we love someone, the bigger the flame we give them on the cake. :)
And on Sunday we had Chici's birthday.
The kids each made a handmade card for Chici and put on a dance routine for her.
And of course, there was cake!!
It was a fun week of celebrating the lives of people who are important to us. It doesn't hurt that we had so many cakes. Each person gets to pick their own flavour and we had a wide variety this week. I don't think the kids got tired of them at all!
We are able to give thanks to God for one more year in their lives. We are also thankful they are here with us. Because we are a small home, we are a very close group and know each other well.
We pray that your week is going well. God bless and feliz cumpleanos!
I can't imagine having that many cakes in such a short time! That must have been pure torture :)
