6th Birthday

The highlight of Rama's birthday party was a special guest, Princess Jasmine. The girls were simply in awe.
Jasmine had games and gifts for all the little princesses. They played Hot Potato and Jasmine Says. She also put magic make-up and nail polish on everyone. But Rama, of course, as the birthday girl, got ultra-special treatment. Which made Rama just melt, I imagine.
We invited 6 friends - I like the rule-of-thumb that whatever the child's age, that's just how many kids she gets to have over.
Her lola from Manila texted, asking about the party. I said that Jasmine was a hit. She texted back, buti naman, coz Rama might be missing her Jasmine doll which we left in Manila. I had to text back, Totoong Jasmine. So here's the proof.

Stumped. Again.

Rama: Why do they call it ball instead of just party?

Ano Daw?

Rama was writing. I was helping her out. She would tell me what she wanted to say, I'll write it, and then she would copy it in her own hand.

Rama: How do you write "until out of space"?

So I wrote it out. Turns out she was working on a note for her Papi, "I love you until out of space."

I asked her what she meant. "I love you as high as the CN Tower, as high as the clouds, until the clouds, the moon, sun, stars, until out of space."

Ayun. Outer space pala.

Kleenex

Fun stuff! I personalized our tissue box. Rama is usually sniffly in the mornings. So we like to have tissues within easy reach. But she liked these so much, they now live in her room. Which is actually her playroom/nap room. (She still co-sleeps, I don't know for how long we'll be doing this.)

Shoe Drama

Rama managed to wear her rubber shoes out. So it was really time for a trip to the shoe store. We needed rubber shoes, but she ended up getting something pink and sparkly.
Britney, upon seeing pink and sparkly shoes, wanted one for herself, too. Rama told me this and asked me if we could buy the same pair for Britney. I asked why she wanted to do that. Rama said, "Britney was crying. I don't want her to cry. So can we get her shoes like this, too?"
We went that same evening. Too bad there wasn't any left in Britney's size. Rama figured that it was a different branch, and she said that we should go to exactly the same place where we got hers.
Maybe this weekend.
Shoe store had a sale going, so we snagged two pairs. The other one was what she really needed - shoes for gym (aka PE). But Rama didn't choose bulky gym shoes. She went with rubber-soled maryjanes.
Such a femme.
