Five candles at 40°C

Today Nahum turned five. He had all his five birthday parties in Mexico. We brought him along to missions at the age of three months old. After all, he has adapted much Mexican culture and language, except Kimchi, for sure.

Today was another joyful day added to his life. We had a warm party, though it was done just among us family without any guest. For he refused to have them. He was scared (or embarrassed) to 'mordida (taking a bite)' - facial bath with cake - after the birthday song. Although we've tried to convince him to have a usual party, he firmly and boldly resisted it. It was, however, a laughter party. Also a burnning night as thermometer had marked highest temperature, 40°C, so far of the year but too much for us to sleep. Due to such unbearable heat, we had to squeeze in our children's air-conditioned room to sleep. Even greater joy it was for Nahum.

Happy birthday, Nahum! We wish we could've been there to celebrate your Big5 with you. Hopefully, we will get together soon and celebrate all the birthdays we missed. Love... Ted, Sandy, Abi, and Isabel
