Ulog#15 Birthday Celebration

Meet Josiah Paul, the birthday celebrant. He celebrated his birthday last July 30.

Josiah is a miracle baby because he came out only at 7 months. My sister at that time has eclampsia so they need to do an emergency cesarean delivery. Eclampsia is when a pregnant woman has high blood pressure. Doctors said that he has only 72 hours to live because he was so small at that time and his lungs are not yet fully developed. But here he is now, 8 fruitful years full of love and happiness.

Then we had dinner with our family.

And after the dinner, we decided to go to the arcade so that my kids together with their cousins can hang along and play.

It was a tiring day but it was worth it because Kiel and Ben enjoyed the company of their cousins, Josiah and Pj. And I also had the time to sit and talk with my sisters because we don't usually see each other since we are all busy with family and work. Family gatherings like this are one of the best.
