Being two years old makes you aware that it's a special occasion and Malakai was a good host to his guests.. sharing and playing for three hours Sunday afternoon. Although his birthday was actually Monday, Mama and Pa worked around the schedule of Mali's guests. Everyone had a good time eating fresh veggies with dip, ham, guava paste (like the Cubans serve to their guests, but without the traditional cream cheese (because Gramma forgot to buy extra), and TWO birthday cakes! Mali's favorite blueberry upside down cake and a yummy carrot cake with a sweet cream cheese icing. Mama made a lovely pink punch of blood oranges, lemons, and sparkling water. The day was warm and sunny and the children enjoyed going into the garden and played nicely together. Four of the children were close in age to Mali and there was one "big boy" there, Lorian. The grownups enjoyed seeing one another and there will be even more photos, the next ones taken by David. Heidi's Blessing Way will be next Sunday, here. No children will be present for that special event celebrating the birth of Heidi and David's second child, any day now. Mali's other grandmother (also named Penny) sent his favorite toy, a large spinning top that plays music! Gramma gave him a white Ferrari he saw while shopping in Nevada City. The home is the photo is Lucia's.
