Same birth date

Last Christmas, I had made simple gifts to be given to tiny tots. One of my favorite recipients was this little boy. He was only 15 months old. I like his ever ready smiles..So cute and adorable.

Since then, I always notice him. His father is always carrying him. I always call the boy, "Baby" till today.

Few weeks ago, I gave him some coloring books and he was so happy. This time his mother was holding him. He's rather shy and wouldn't want other people to carry him. But surprisingly, few days ago, he let me carry him. It was indeed a rare opportunity.

Yesterday night I saw him again. This time his grandfather was carrying him. His mum told me that he always 'manja' with the grandpa. She also told me the boy is going to be two years old.

So I simply asked, 'When is his birthday?' 
She replied, 'September 9.'

Wow, I was surprised! I share the same birth date as this adorable tiny tot. I shook hands with him and he gave me the cutest smile!

Just beside them was an old man. He said, 'September 9! It's a special day! I'm going to be 70!'

Wow, on the same day and the same time, I found two person who share my birth date!

    Wenn, you never seize to amaze me with the kind of customer service and generosity you and your shop are doling out to your customers. Good for you!

    Yeah, it is heart-warming to learn of others sharing one's birthday. In my office, four of us share the same birthday. What a coincidence, eh?

Twin bananas

Image
Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
