Kitkat's 7th Birthday (Oct. 4, 2006)

On October 4, 2006, Boing, Yaya Benining and I went to Kitkat's school (Victory Christian School at Every Nation Leadership Institute Building, Fort Bonifacio) to give her a surprise birthday party. Kitkat said that her break time is only 10 minutes and it would start at 9:40am, so we arrived at 9:37. To our surprise, we got there when the kids were about to enter their classroom. The breaktime starts at 9:20am, according to the teacher. Anyway, Teacher Michelle was kind enough to give us 10 minutes to celebrate (it was stretched to 25 minutes).

Jenn wasn't with us because she held an event called Campaign for Proper Nutrition at a school and gave a talk in front of 600 students, but was able to celebrate with us at home.

We brought ice cream and cake for Kit's classmates, teachers, guard-friends and Belen of the canteen. Although it was simple, it was special. During breaktime, Kitkat asked seven of her classmates to pray for her. These 7-year old children prayed that Kitkat would be a great leader someday; that she would be a blessing to many people; that she would be thankful for what she has; that she would be a star to people; and that God would send His precious blood and protect her. Did I say they're 7-year old children? Honestly, I believe that these children will be able to make a big difference during their lifetime. These future leaders will shape our nation.

Anyway, here are the rest of the pics...
