Two Years Old

Hanna turned two years old last week while we were staying at Ikadaba.





Baba bought Hanna a birthday cake from the shop in the next village called 'san rive sekiya'. It says. "2 years old. Congratulations on your birthday Hanna". And I have to say that it was probably the nicest sponge cake I have ever eaten.



Hanna thought so too.




Hanna received lots of nice presents. Meccano from Rachel and John which she enjoyed putting together and playing with.







Granny and Granddad gave Hanna a book and a DVD of Hairy Mclairy which is enjoyed by the whole family.



Hanna also received a present from the Prime Minister of Japan, Mr Taro Aso. To stimulate the economy Aso gave JPY 20,000 to each child in Japan, and JPY 12,000 to each adult. As you can imagine the Japanese toy and sweet industries are weathering the global recession pretty well.



After carefully considering our family situation, Hannahs needs, and our duty as patriotic residents...

...we decided to support the domestic cuckoo clock industry. This is Hanna's new "Aso-dokei"


Danyl, Sonoko and Yoppi gave Hanna this cute red and white dress. Hanna is excited because she has just realized how to get a kiwi call from the kiwi that Katherine and Leonard gave her a while ago.
