It ill be another month before Rick really turns 5. However to be able to give him presents here at home in Bangalore and to celebrate with his friends we pretend it is a month earlier, namely the last Saturday before the start of the school holiday. So yesterday was Rick's Bangalore 5th Birthday.
He came happy down the stairs in the morning and was really happy all day. Lovely big grins that made me also very happy. What a handsome big boy!
The pirate playmobil was much appreciated but first he had to read the new books - Rick is becoming a real book worm.
Chandramma also brought him the customary birthday wear
His adventures & treasures party was only for boys - and Tandia.
The boys where fun together, happy, nice, no fighting and no issues. Just a lot of running, sweating & play of all sorts. Below next to one of his best friends Tanish.
Treasure!
And another one!
Figuring out the treasure map
The dad squad
And then after about 45 min we struck gold! The treasure chest was actually quite cool, the way it turned out. But we forgot to take a picture before hand, and well, no getting in now!
It got sort of fairly distributed all -:)
Once home the kids wanted to play first and entertained themselves (9 boys, 1 girl and 3 lithe brothers & sisters). After that it was time for the cake. Rick had ordered a pirate sword - nothing else could be negotiated.
I think it came out exactly as he wanted
Happy, happy, happy!
And afterwards, out of all the gifts, it was again the books that got most attention.
Happy Rick! Emotionally to me it didi not feel like his Birthday, but it did to him and it was so good to give him such a fun & happy day.
