Abigail's Mom's Birthday
My mom has her likings - she is particular about her favourite dress, pen, food etc. She becomes very excited around the days of festivals. One such event is her own birthday.
Like any other annual event, the festivities for my mom's birthday began a week ago. First, the coutless visits to apparel departments in search for her new dress. Then on Sunday, we went out to the movies. Yesterday, my appa suprised us with big balloons and a cake. Today is her birthday; but the celebration does not end here - tomorrow evening we are planning to go out for dinner!
Today she got up happy and energetic. She prepared a quick breakfast of spicy adai, and got ready. After the last big festival, today we all got together to say our morning prayers. When my appa offered adai to my mom, she said that the first bite of the day should be sweet so that the whole year is full of fun and success! See how sweet she is?
She spent some time searching for some good dish to prepare for the evening. And just by chance she came across the recipe for "aravanan" - a grand dish prepared exclusively for the Lord on celestial occassions. Taking cue as a blessing from the abode, she prepared this amazing dish. Everyone loved it; my mom was overjoyed!
She bought herself a long skirt and matching tops for her birthday. I think she is compensating her age by wearing such a nice dress! Just kidding! :~) My mom is inncoent. I love my mom.
Our home is filled with balloons, and I particularly enjoyed playing with them.
HAPPY B'DAY AMMA!
