Together with three sisters from different mothers, we planned to spend my birthday in South Korea and watch the cherry tree bloom along the river Han but apparently God has a different plan. Instead, I had the whole day spent at my sister's (all the way next door, hahaha).It took the whole morning preparing "alupe" (a native dessert made of steamed shaved tapioca root mixed with brown sugar and coconut milk and wrapped in banana leaves). As to the proportion, I have no idea as "papi" (my brother-in-law) took care of it. He left the wrapping with Summer and myself.
The experience of doing things together with the little ones which actually teaches them something practical is a joy. I can feel Summer's sense of pride and accomplishment at doing something for me on my birthday.
