I turned ONE

"Happy Birthday to You..Happy Bday to you..Happy Birthday Dear Rheu...Happy B'day to you". That's the first thing I heard  this morning

I got a lot of phone calls - from my Achchamma, Ammamma, Aru Chettan, Hashu Mama...all saying the same thing though - "Happy Bday vava" which made me realize that today is something special....today is MY day :)

We reached a nice place which was all decorated with frills, balloons, cut outs..I took a good morning nap before we left which helped me avoid any meltdown while celebrating the big day..

Right near the door was the attendance sheet - 'The Guest Book'

I was dressed up all in white..like an angel...Thank you Vellyachcha and Vellyamma for the pretty frock..I did hear people say - "Oh, she is a doll" :)

One by one there were so many people coming and showering me with blessings and hugs and pecks..I was enjoying all the attention and pampering...

Finally it was the cake cutting time...You wanna see Princess Rhea's Cake :)

I was all excited to not just cut the cake but have it too. Hmm...It was yummy

Everyone around was clapping...I too know how to do that ...And I didn't hold back :)

After the cake cut, Mamma and Sunaina Aunty changed me into a pretty dress gifted by my Tuttu Appachchi and Hashu Mama....Everyone had praises for me...which I undoubtedly was enjoying :)  And you know not many people knew that I can not just clap but walk too...So why not let them know that too...

After lunch there was a musical chair round for all the ladies...who I must say had been taking good care of me...

People started moving out...Mamma Dadda were giving them a token of thanks...All of which was packed by me..Phew...that was a tough job..

A couple of Mamma Papa's friends stayed back to remove all the decoration and to wind up the long day that we'd had..
Finally the little princess returned to her castle and couldn't think of doing anything else but....

I wanna thank all those friends who took time to help Mamma Dadda with the hall decoration, getting the cake, balloons, pizza and most importantly taking such good care of me..Without your help Mom Dad could not have pulled it off so well.

And hey how can I not thank you all for the lovely gifts that you gave me which I am still to explore and enjoy
