Happy Birthday!!

Instead of on Monday I had to visit the girl on Tuesday. Was a little bit nervous before visiting this time as the last time I went there wasn't that enjoyable. And I do really like the job and to be around children so really hoping it will work out between me and the girl (Jung Tseng).
In the morning before going there I received a call informing me that today would be her birthday! So before heading there still had to buy her something. Her mum told me that she really loves the cookies I gave her for chinese new year. So just quickly went to Park 'N Shop's Taste to get another box of these cookies.
When arriving at the home of Jung Tseng I expected there would be balloons and other bday decorations but there were non... And didn't see any other gifts so got a bit doubtful if I would have misunderstood. I did ask the kid but she also told me it wasn't her bday...was quite confused so did wait to give her the cookies.
She wasn't really in a mood to play yet, so I used the Noddy hand doll to talk to her and then she and Noddy started drawing together. She really liked Noddy and talked quite a bit with him :).
A while later she asked me if we could watch a DVD of Beyond (her favourite group) so we played several songs of Beyond. Later I asked her again if today was her bday. She was a bit hesitative, but when I told her if it was her bday I had something for her it made it quite easy for her to say yes :). When I asked how old she was now she answered me "three" while sticking her hand up with the 3 fingers pointing up like they did at the Beyond concert. So I gave her the cookies and she indeed really loved it. She opened the box and we counted the cookies together in English :). From then she carried the box with her all the time.
