It’s one of those family gatherings that we all enjoyed. It was a simple lunch with the kids to celebrate Mom’s 89th birthday. Nissa is the photographer of the day and she has a new phone with a camera that is even better than some cameras in the market. Just love the slow mo app which she uses to take some videos of Nate. Wish I could share them here.
We had roast chicken, pork barbecue, fiddlehead fern salad, pancit canton, gelatin and two kinds of chocolate cakes. Josef bought a triple chocolate roll while Nissa had a small cake decorated so Mom could blow her birthday candle.
Despite the heat, we all enjoyed the simple lunch. Nate and I played with his new Mr. Monster ball He was not interested with his other toys. Instead he found my set of small fork and spoon which we use for pickles and bite-size food. He was fascinated. Then he suddenly burst out “I worked at McDo for a week”.
“What did you learn”, I asked.
“Plenty”, he said.
He didn’t get the Best Crew Award which he earned last year He was given a certificate of the “Best Dancer” instead. Knowing Nate, I really believe that he could dance. He has his own moves and style of dancing.
We munched on peanuts and cornik later. We skipped snacks.
