The August 8th - the same day our Sathvi born last year.
I remember that day -- we all anxiously waited from the morning for a phone call from Patti or Chittappa from the hospital. It is only by 7 O'Clock in the evening we got a call from Patti to come to hospital as our kutti darling born by around 6.56 pm.
This year, we started on 8th August morning to chithi's house at Chennai. We reached by around 9.30 am. and by the time we reached chithi's house, almost 80% of the decoration was over, as chithi, chiththappa & paatti were at it for the past two days. Chithi was busy doing flower arrangement in Sri Mother's Meditation Hall, as the prayer to be followed after the cake cutting. The Cake cutting ceremony was also arranged before Sri Mother in the same hall.
We bought few ornamental flowers from Pondicherry and we arranged it in the vase. I then played with Sathvi. Appa & Chittappa tied the balloons and I helped them by pumping air in the balloons.
By 5 O'Clock in the evening, all the decorations were over and we got ready by 5.15 pm. By 5.30 pm, Chittappa's Younger Brother Saran Chittappa came with his wife and his daughter, Oviya.
Invitees were just our family members -- Appa, Amma & I, Elango Thatha & Viji Paatti, Saran Chittappa, Chithi & Oviya & Gunal Thatha ( My Chiththappa's Dad). Thats it.
Usually, this is our way of celebrating any family functions. Our celebrations normally restricted to our own family alone. We start any function with prayers to Mother & flower offerings. Also end any function with prayers again and meditation.
The cake was beautifully decorated in pink and in the shape 1. The table was decorated with pink rose petals, that match the eggless cake.
By around the same time Sathvi born, they cut the cake. Then, Chithi had arranged for 2 games -- one is Tambola ( Housie) and the other is Passing the parcel.
In Tambola, Amma won Full House & 3rd House & I won 1st House & 2nd House. Every one said.... The same family won all the 4 prizes... We had a great time.
In Passing the parcel game, its Saran Chittappa's turn... he won.
Chithi along with Sathvi gave prizes & gifts to us. Superb Personalised gifts... really really wonderful...
Thanks Chithi & Chittappa. A Special Thanks to Sathvi Kutty.
Enjoyed this day like anything. HAPPY BIRTHDAY OUR DEARMOST SATHVI.
