My 6th Birthday

It wasn’t one day.
It was three.

The invitation the card that started it all — open it

Day one

It started at school

Thursday, 10 July

My birthday started at school. Daddy came in with a pink cake and everybody sang to me.

Then there was ANOTHER cake at home. I cut it all by myself — look, I did the whole thing.

This one’s blurry because I would not stand still. I was too excited.

Day two

The big party at FunVilla

Saturday, 11 July

My badge said Inayat C. 5:30–8:00pm — that meant the whole place was mine. We got FunVilla socks and played every single game.

Then everybody sang to me round the cake. That was the loudest bit of the whole day — and the grown-ups had pizza and took about a hundred pictures.

Day three

Flowers, and my blue dress

Sunday, 12 July

On Sunday I wore my blue dress and somebody gave me real flowers. Nobody ever gave me flowers before!

And then it was dark, and I was six, and I was very very happy.

And that’s how I turned six.

Three cakes. All my friends. And real flowers.
