We were all excited to celebrate Benjamin's sixth birthday today. The celebration began in his classroom. First we observed what the date was Then everyone gathered around to get ready for the celebration In fact, Miss Linda got too close Miss Patty called for quiet and got Benjamin on her lap to put on the birthday hat As the tension mounted out came the birthday cake As everyone watched out went the candles

Next we went outside to cut the cake and have the feast Miss Patty decided to take some pictures of us and we took one of her with Benjamin Then there was a magic show that even brought out the superintendent's wife in her role as guidance counselor

Back at home, we began the process of opening and enjoying the presents

Next, we adjourned to Kapulsky's for the celebration. Everyone was in a festive mood for dinner

This got better as the first present was opened and even better when the contents were seen The high point came when the sparkler on the dessert was brought and we all sang (Ha'om Yom Huleddet)
