Happy Birthday!

Today, 15th of April, is the birthday of Amanda (my no. 1 baby) - who turns sweet 16. Can't believe how time flies. It really seems like yesterday she came out from my tummy after 35 hours in labour ( Yes.....) She was born in the UK and in those days, c-section was not even given as an option though she wasnt engaged until I was almost 7 cms dialated! Anyway, she made it up by being the cutest. most angelic baby. It was a real joy to take care of her. She's a model baby....no problems eating, sleeping, played on her own. Ahh....I had it easy ( until the two younger boys came along!)

She turns 16 years old....no more model baby....but a model teenager?!? Got such thing or not? Hehe! She's a good girl, obedient at most times, stubborn though ( her dad's genes) and does a lot of things last minute ( like school projects - which gives mum numerous heart attacks) She sings and plays the guitar beautifully.

She will be taking her "O" levels in two weeks time. Then she will be starting life as a college student...and learning to drive....another big milestone in her life and ours.

Happy Birthday Amanda! Love you.....
