Second Birthday [TBT Initiative] ESP/ENG

Continuing with the initiative of my friend @soyunasantacruz on #TBT Thursdays, today I want to share with you one that belongs to those few birthdays in my life that were immortalized in photographs, because I don't really like to celebrate my birthdays, and my family only did it when I was a little girl. My birthday is on February 28th (the last day) and sometimes it fell during Carnival, which, as far as I can see, happened in 1987. Therefore, my parents decided to have a costume party, although the main theme was rag dolls, and that's how they dressed me for the occasion. I still remember my costume and, believe it or not, I remember some things from that party (my family always jokes that I probably remember the day I was born). But from this party, I only remember raising my arms so that my mom would pick me up (and I remember her as someone enormous 😄). I also remember that all the children played in a circle holding hands and that one of my aunts put on makeup like a rag doll to take pictures with me and my cousin who was also dressed as a rag doll.

Continuando con la iniciativa de la amiga @soyunasantacruz en los jueves de #TBT hoy quiero compartir con ustedes una que pertenece a esos pocos cumpleaños que en mi vida fueron inmortalizados en fotografías, porque en realidad no me gusta celebrar mis cumpleaños, y mi familia solo lo hacía cuando yo era una niña pequeña. mi cumpleaños es en febrero 28 (el último día) y algunas veces tocaba en las fechas de carnaval, lo cuál por lo que veo sucedió en 1987, por lo tanto mis padres optaron por hacer una fiesta de disfraces, aunque el tema principal era las muñequitas de trapo, y fue así como me vistieron para la ocasión, yo aún recuerdo mi traje y aunque no lo crean recuerdo algunas cosas de esa fiesta (mi familia siempre bromea con que seguramente recuerdo el día de mi nacimiento) Pero de esta fiesta solo recuerdo levantar los brazos para que mi mamá me alzara (y la recuerdo como alguien enorme 😄) también recuerdo que todos los niños jugábamos haciendo una rueda tomados de las manos y que una de mis tías se maquilló como una muñequita para fotografiarse conmigo y mi prima que también estaba vestida como muñeca.

And there I am with my parents, @victor2356 and @carmen1659, so young 😄 I think they were in their twenties. And of course, I couldn't miss the garden-themed cake that my aunt Francisca (my mother's older sister) made, with the traditional green-colored shredded coconut to look like grass, but this time it had more details like sugar flowers and mushrooms, and it was topped with a very cute little sugar doll. I have many more photos from that party that I can't upload to this post because I've already shared them (and since I post daily on Hive, it's impossible for me to find the link).

I have truly enjoyed this initiative more than ever, so I invite you all to join and share with us those photos from past birthdays along with your respective experiences 😊
