Happy birthday, darling Dominic! How time flies! One year ago today, Dominic entered our lives, and things have never been the same since! Busier, more tiring? Yes. More joyful and fulfilled? Definitely! Our boy is a great source of joy and love in our lives; we are so grateful for him.
The birthday party was a success. Family and Dominic's April friends celebrated at Ficus Ballroom in Jurong Country Club. Lunch buffet, a very cute, 5kg, Spot the Dog number 1 birthday cake, goodie bags, lots of fun. Mummy did up the room with helium balloons in blue and orange, a Pokoyo-with-Dominic birthday banner, and a play corner for the babies consisting of a rented Winnie the Pooh slide and a ball pool. I'm so glad the babies had fun, and we received positive feedback on the food. Can't wait to view all the photos of the party that our photographer had taken.
The biggest and most heartwarming surprise is that Dominic's confinement nanny, CY, SMS'ed us a birthday greeting! Nanny CY was a great help and friend to us during the first 1-2 months of Dominic's life. I dare say not many nannies still remember their ward after one year. I called Nanny CY in return, and she said she still remembers Dominic fondly. How sweet! The feeling is mutual. Nanny CY is still taking on confinement jobs. I think she is a fantastic caregiver and very well suited for the role.
Dominic is indeed very fortunate to be surrounded by so many people who love and care for him. Not to mention two very doting grandparents who gladly give their all - time, money, effort, for his well-being. He is such a lucky boy! I will always remember that he has grown healthy and strong with the good grace and love of these selfless people, and will always be grateful towards them. I hope Dominic will remember them and be thankful too!
As for Daddy and me, we have survived the first year of parenthood! We heave a happy sigh of relief. :)
