Monday's Birthday Oldie






Today's birthday girl is moi. I'm fairly happy today. Two of my sisters, two old college friends, my three kids, two nieces-in-law, mum, and Betina and Chloe wished me a happy birthday. I cooked pasta in white sauce as it's a Filipino tradition to serve noodles or pasta for one's birthday for long life. Eldest son Bird brought ube {purple yam}flavored cake and daughter Christine brought ice cream called Coffee Crumble. It is coffee flavored and has bits of cashew nuts.

Chloe was specially sweet to me today as she seem to understand that she and I celebrate our birthdays one day apart. Betina did her best to please the Lola by stringing red santan florets to form a bracelet. It was so sweet of her.

I also posted above the pic of the leftover ube cake. I can't figure out how to put captions under them pics as the pics will not appear while I'm composing my pics. Something I clicked sometime ago messed it all up.

Anyways, God is good as always He was, He is and He ever will be. I'm celebrating my birthday with a renewed hope and revived spirit. My life is in His hands and my health in His care. It is sweet.
