Jo's 1st Lunar Birthday

Jo was borned on the tenth day of the Lunar New Year in 2007. Last Saturday, on the Lunar Calendar, Jo turned one. Ah Ma did the praying and thanking of the gods on Friday morning. On Saturday, I decided to cook a traditional birthday lunch - mee sua, with a big drumstick and two hard boiled eggs...


>> First up, the drumstick


>> Jo looking very serious as I held her hand to break open her eggs


>> Jo's lunar birthday lunch. Matthew ate one egg, I had the white of the other and Jo ate the yolk

At one stage while feeding Jo her mee sua, she refused to eat and kept pointing at something on the table. At first I didn't catch what she wanted. Then I realised she wanted a bite of the drumstick. This gal really knows what is good. She didn't want the chicken meat I pinched off the drumstick, she wanted to bite the meat of the drumstick!

Happy 1st Lunar Birthday, Joanne. May you have many good things coming your way! :)
