Ayyám-i-Há Festivities

Sorry we neglected to blog as we have been busy this past week due to the Ayyám-i-Há festivities. Starting with Monday, we had a party at our Mother Goose class, then Tuesday was a special day where the children in the Rose Garden and Brilliant Star classes joined together and made cookies for the staff in the Office of Personnel. On Wednesday, we (me and four other moms with our girls) visited our friend Cllyv and daughter Sheehan in Akka. First we visited the Shrine of Bahá’u’lláh together, and then headed off to Cllyv's house and had a delicious lunch. We had a good time there and hope to do this again. On Thursday there was no Rose Garden class, but instead brought our kids to Kat Katim indoor play area in the Castra mall. In the evening we had an Ayyám-i-Há party for all the families that was held in the PRC. For the last couple of weeks I have been preparing some materials for the stationery card making that I volunteered to handle during the party. I am glad some children (and even moms and other friends) came to our table and enjoyed making their own cards for different occasions (Ayyám-i-Há, Ridvan, Naw-Ruz, Birthday, etc.). The last party we attended was Friday's party with the Filipino friends where we were only able to participate in the sing-a-long portion and of course another delicious dinner (the friends had exchange of gifts and played some games before we came).

We wish our families and Bahá’í friends a Happy Ayyám-i-Há and a blessed fast!

My Second Birthday...

Today is my second birthday and mama and oma surprised me by bringing me to Kat Katim, an indoor play area in the Castra mall. It was nice that my friend Carmel was there too with her mom, so we played together. My favorite one was the little house where I pretend to fall asleep each time I go inside. I played peek-a-boo there too with oma. I also really like the computer where I see the sun, moon and some children and animals' faces. After an hour and 15 minutes I finished playing and we went home, where papa joined us for lunch. After this, I had a great time opening all the presents which papa, mama and oma gave me. Thank you sooo much, I really like them a lot :)!
