Josiah's Birthday

Our little big boy has turned five. Hard to believe that five years have passed so fast. We're most thankful of course that Josiah has recovered well from the recent Campylobacter Jejuni coursing through his body. He woke up with a little tummy ache in the morning but was ok for the rest of the day. He managed to keep down some toast with jam (no butter!), cheerios, rice and soup and... some blueberry muffins.

We didn't want to let him have a cake yet so we went to Food Emporium and he choose the mini dozen blueberry muffins. Tried to persuade him to go for chocolate chip but he insisted and after eating the first one said to me, "See? I do like blueberry muffins!"

It was nice with my parents first calling to wish him happy birthday, then S' parents, then the Leongs in the evening - who sang Happy Birthday for him and finally the Batchelors, who Josiah shares his birthday with.

It's not the scale of party that we had last year in London but Josiah was happy and that's all we can ask for.

ps: S had to forego his NBA ticket to stay in.
pps: Joanna had her first taste of broccoli today - she didn't look too impressed.

The number five has to face me
