8ight years old

Dear Jaden,

Today, you turn 8. Watching you grow and learn is one of the best things that can ever happen in mummy's and daddy's life.

As usual, we always celebrate your birthday with a bang, just that this year, we had to tone it down a little because your paternal grandfather just passed away about a month before your birthday.

This year, we held your birthday on a Saturday, 26th September at home. Daddy planned a Satay birthday party dinner for your guests and he even cooked a few more meals to put on the table for your party. Daddy made mash potatoes, creamy mushroom sauce while rest of the food were tapao-ed such as fried rice, roasted duck and pork and the main star meal of the party, which you absolutely love -Satay!

Mummy, just like the previous years, is in charge of your party decor and this year for your birthday party theme, is in honour of Captain Gerrard from Liverpool Football Club.

We had your cake commissioned to look nearly exactly like the one Stevie G got for his farewell party. It was just awesome that you turn 8 and Stevie G's jersey number was 8. 

Mummy DIY the decor all by herself, with printing help from your kai-yeh for your 'Birthday Instagram wall' which mummy posted up all your past birthdays' celebrations and all the cakes that you had.

Your kong kong and poh poh came down from Penang to celebrate your birthday with you too, two days in a row. First your party day, and when the clock strikes 12, indicating it is 28th September. You love how we sang you your Birthday songs and of course, the cakes. You always look forward to eat your birthday cakes! 

Didi sure did enjoy himself during your weekend birthday celebration. 

I hoped you had like the party mummy and daddy held for you. Next year, should you still like the food from that place, mummy and daddy are going to hold it there for you ok, our dearest baby boy?

Yes, it is true. No matter how old you get, you will always be our baby boy! 

Happy Birthday sweet child of ours and mummy wishes you nothing but happiness, good health and that you will grow up to be a good person. Mummy and Daddy and Didi loves you way beyond the moon and back!!! <3 font="" nbsp="">
