Dear uncles and aunties (that includes granduncles and grandaunties), thank you for celebrating my first birthday with me.
I had a lot of fun and I hope you did too.
I didn't really know what was going on, being just over 12 months old (and falling asleep midway through the lunch all the way past the cake-cutting ceremony), but what I was aware of was some familiar faces as well as some strange-looking ones.
but I don't judge, because mama and dadada do their best to raise me up social.
I think it's part of their plan to have me be comfortable being carried by as many people as possible, so that they have their hands free at events like this.
maybe.
anyway, thank you for your presence and your presents.
thank you for your ang bao.
I have no idea what money is, but mama and dadada assure me it's useful.
dadada has uploaded a few pictures of the party here:

I think he and mama were a little distracted during the lunch and not doing a very good job being cameramen.
so it would really thrill me if you could email me any photos you have.

dadada will keep them for me until I am old enough to recognise your face and thank you in person for having been at my first birthday party, which I will likely have no recollection of.
thank you for enjoying the Chinese cuisine with me as I tucked into my generic baby mush.
thank you even if you couldn't make it, because I know you would have loved to have been there...
a special baby shout-out to goong goong for putting the whole thing together, too. one, two, threeeee!
much love,
Seth
