My absolutely perfect 11yo Cati

 Second pandemic birthday for my sweet and gorgeous Catalina. We had no idea what to do, how to celebrate, how to show our absolutely perfect, amazing, and so loved daughter that our hearts melt when we look at her. We kept asking what she wants, kept giving suggestions, but in the end we were still mostly confined to our house.

It was still a weekend celebration. Saturday we went shopping ( Cati’s only request). Masks on, we went to an outside mall and pretended to be normal. 

 

Evening came with beauty activities: face masks, showers with fancy lotions. Cati is such a little lady. Barely any leftovers from the child who needed mommy all the time. 

Sunday was Cati’s big dinner party. Our only surprise was a chocolate fountain and she loved it. We loved it too, fresh fruits covered in sugar...Tartare hut, icecream cake, zoom party with the family, presents, and the usual decorations. 

 

 

 

 

I took the day off for her real birthday, on the 9th. She was in school, so I had to wait for her to hug her and kiss her and wish her all the stars and the moons. Ami and myself did playdough cards for her, while waiting for her lunch break.

We had another little dinner and a cake. I wished we had more stars and fireworks, more people celebrating one of the greatest should on Earth. But I also know that no party, no present, absolutely nothing can capture what I feel on Cati’s birthday. So I’ll just shout it out, even if it’s only for me: I love you, amazing child! You are beyond perfect!
