Hello everyone
How are you all doing?
I hope you're all enjoying the holiday? And I'm sure most of those working will be preparing to go back to their places of work which is very good because you need to bring money for the family 鈽猴笍馃槈. To some, the holidays are over while some are still observing the holidays, whichever one, do have a great day ahead 馃槞.
Like I said in my previous post that I have been so busy with my little prince dedication, the celebration was indeed a great and awesome one, I never knew people would turn up the way they did which was very good of course.
On the 1st of may was his dedication and that is the first time he went to church since he was burn. According to what my people do here, once they deliver, the baby is not meant to go out to anywhere except he/she wants to visit the hospital for doctors appointment, every other places will have to wait till after three months when the parents will have to take him to church. Then the priest will pray for him, only then will he start going out to see people and also start going to church properly.
We started off by cooking a night before the dedication which was on Saturday, though they paid the caterer to cook for the crowds that would be coming. The only food we prepared was the one everyone at home will eat but it turned out to being something visitors will eat.
The next day, my little prince was dressed for the occasion which is his day of course and he has to look extremely handsome, we were so busy that I couldn't take pictures of him after he was dressed up, I was only able to take pictures of him with some people after mass, and also at the reception馃槀. He looked so tired and stressed out already, I guess he was tired of people carrying him up and down, he has never experienced something like this before.
As the auntie to the chief celebrant, I also had to look extremely gorgeous too, I did my makeup myself. Though I made lots of mistakes but I just had to leave it like that. It was really a big day for everyone especially the parents after waiting for 26 years before having this child. It's a testimony to tell.
After mass, we all had to go to the reception to finish the party. It was an awesome experience, the love, gifts and everything were massive, I wonder how his one year birthday is going to look like馃
I was very busy at the reception, but I had a little chance to snap with the celebrant. Before going to the reception, I had to go home to change my clothes to something more comfy before going to the reception. There was enough for everyone to eat and drink, I personally had a great time and I'm sure others did too. Looking at me, you will know that I'm already stressed out and I needed to rest 馃槀
All pictures are mine and I was given the permission to use them.
