My sister celebrated her nth birthday yesterday and since lockdown is still not lifted here in our home town because of increasing covid cases. We cannot go to the mall, to travel to other places nearby we have to maximize our available resources. But thanks to my ever clever daughter, the night before the birthday she told me that we should prepare a breakfast for my sister and so I agreed.

Morning of her birthday, I heard her shouting with surprise because a setup made at the back of her car. She wondered who could it be since she slept at around 2am while my mother and my aunt woke up at 430am.

After picture taking she prepared her 1st cup of coffee for the day and went straight to beach. I totally forgot everything about our planned surprise breakfast until Yuri reminded me and said, 'Hala Mommy, nag-coffee na si Tita!'. And I quickly checked what mother prepared for breakfast and tried my very best to be creative.

Special breakfast

I initially prepared this one; plain rice, fried dried fish with soft boiled egg and some jute leaves on top! I think the jute leaves made my presentation looked fantastic😁. I showed it to my sister and she suggested that I should also add some flowers. I cut some of our periwinkles and made a little bouquet then I grabbed some of the kakanin (sweetened glutinous rice) and formed it like a cake topped with still periwinkle. For the final touch, my sister arranged some balloons around it and taaaddaaaa!!!!

After preparing, I went straight to the beach but I met her halfway so I just pretended that I left something and walk home with her. I immediately grabbed her to her bed and shouted 'Surprise!!'. Look at that joy and surprise in her face after seeing all these. She really did not expect anything like this one because we never done it before in any of our siblings. She was really happy and I am glad that she liked it.

No matter how hard life is, how chaotic the world and our surroundings right now, we should not stop celebrating. We survived all the challenges from 2020 and we deserve a celebration. We don't need big or extravagant one, we just need our loved ones by our side, good health, grateful heart and big faith with our God.


Thanks for reading and God bless us all.

Keep inspiring. Keep smiling.

I totally agree! A simple celebration with family is enough. I hope my dad would like our surprise for him next month. We have already bought a big mumber balloon. I still don't know what to prepare but at least we already have the decorations right? 😅
