So excited! Today we received 10 pictures from Sam's first birthday party! He is cuter every time I see him! Don't know exactly when they had his party- His birthday was October 17. It looks like a fun time was had, though! They had a little cake for him with some fruit on top- maybe even a tomato??!! And, lots of MUFFINS! Every good party has a big bag of muffins, right?? It is tradition in China to smear icing on the birthday kid's head, so our Sambo got some icing along with that big old tomato- or whatever it is! Enjoy the pics!
Blessings-

Our son, Christian (Yang Heng Dong) was at Hengyang (govm't side) from 4/2008-4/2010 (when we picked him up) we have similar pictures of his 2nd birthday in the orphanage. I have a few other pictures too that we received while waiting. We visited the orphanage at pickup. Email me aliciashj@yahoo.com if you would like me to share any pictures or info with you while you wait. He is so cute!! Congrats! Alicia
ReplyDeleteI am CRACKING UP looking at the strawberry. How sweet!!!! happy to know that they did something for him for his birthday. As we approach our daughter's first birthday I find myself wondering if they will pause to make it special in some way. She is not in the swi anymore (as I noted in another comment), she is in foster care through hengyang swi, but I hope they will do something. It is hard to miss the milestone.
ReplyDeleteIs that a strawberry? well whatever it is, I cant stop giggling....
