yesterday was sofi's 3rd birthday. as usual we didn't have a big party. not that we're not big fans of kiddie parties, it's just that we think it's also to good to teach a child that parties are not every year. it's not always that mommy and daddy will have money to host a children's party. though we don't really deprive her of a celebration. last year and this year, we opted to just celebrate at home and celebrate it with her family. last year ninang analyn happened to join us. this year it's ninang madel and ninong lee's turn to join us for her birthday. the usual spag, cake, chicken lollipop and softdrinks are visible. mama added maja blanca.
people at the office were kidding me that i should have sent food last Friday in school so she can have a party with her classmates. But Jaims said no. Though we're short, we were able to prepare something yesterday. I'm just feeling a little guilty now. When I told her yesterdaythat the cook will make spag, she said no. she said she'll eat it in school. later in the afternoon she also said that she'll have a party in school. I feel so sad. I thought at this age it will still not matter to her but apparently it did. And just to add pain, when i checked my FB, I saw the pictures of my officemate's daughter's 3rd bday party. I'm so devastated.
Did i really let her down?
