I am an year old!!!!

The apple of our eyes, hamare jigar ka tukra, Devaangi turned One on 18th August. For days prior to 18th we were not able to decide what to do for bachu's bday as we did not want to have a big party (Devaangi recently lost her naanu). Finally on 14th we decided that the best way to celebrate bachu's bday was to have Guruji's satsang at home so that along with bacha the whole family receives Guruji's blessings.
We planned for around 70 people and the whole langar was prepared at home by maa and Nidhi massi. This is the first time when we had such a large gathering at home with all preparations done at home itself. Maa and massi prepared chole, matar paneer, dahi vada, sevaiyaan kheer. In addition there were chotte rasgulle, paneer jalebi and offcourse bachu's bday cake.
The whole planning was done in 2 days flat with maa taking off on 17th. Maa decorated the house in color theme of pink and white (in coordination with her little princess's dress). Guruji's aasan was decorated with pink net, flowers and guess what balloons as well :-).
birthday girl indeed looked a little princess in her pink frock ( a gift from naani)and pink head gear(actually a flower studded hairband with pink veil which she would throw moment it was placed on bachu's head)
Bachu's birthday cake was a huge doll cake (again in pink and white) the design of which maa had searched on net and coordinated with slice of itlay for making it. And indeed the guys at slice of Italy did a marvelous job with the cake.
The satsang went on very well thanks to Guruji's blessings with around 40 people present and bacha received blessings of all.
Indeed the best way to celebrate bacha's birthday!!!!
Wishing for many more birthdays for our darling daughter.

It indeed sounds like a wonderful way to celebrate.

And hats off to you for managing the show so well in such less time.

I look forward to see the pictures from the function.
