2️⃣of2️⃣ Fatimah gave birth to Mummy⁉️😂
.
Birthdays are such a fun time to celebrate our children and show them how much we love them. It is always a memorable occasion to remember the day your child was born and to reflect on how much they have grown over the past years.
.
However, I want to make sure my children recognise the true value and meaning of birthdays as a celebration of LIFE and not just an opportunity to be the centre of attention and a time to get more presents.
.
They should be celebrating life by being thankful for the life that has been given to them. They need to remember how hard the process of creating such a special life was. So, first they need to thank God and then the person who has been through the hardship, pain, sweat and tears during the process - their MOTHER!
.
So for these reasons, our family decided to celebrate birthdays by telling their mother just how much they appreciate her for their existence. They could express it to her by saying it directly, through a thank you card and gifts or even by preparing her a special meal!
.
So on Fatimah's birthday, I told her about this but in a simple way for a 4 year old child to understand. She understood it straight away without any hesitation. She told me, "Daddy, after school can you bring me to the shop. I want to buy mummy a thank you card, flowers and chocolate." I said “OK.” and asked her why. She said "sebab Mummy beranok ko I la and dio sakik perut jugok!” (Because Mummy gave birth to me and she went through a lot of pain to be able to bring me to life).
.
You may think that kids her age are too young to be able to understand this concept. But from my experience, the kids are gaining so much more by learning about appreciation from an early age.

Japanese Doll Festival (Hinamatsuri), or Girls' Day, is held on March 3rd. On this day, we set up hina dolls (hina-ningyo) since they are believed to protect girls from bad luck.
This year (2015) was my daughter's 1st Hinamatsuri! The very first celebration is important, when family members hope for growth and happiness for baby girls. My daughter still can't eat anything but I hope she liked this Sushi cake :)
Hishi Mochi (diamond shaped rice cake) is usually presented with hina dolls. Hishi Mochi commonly consists of three layers: pink, white, and green, from top to bottom. It is said that pink represents peach flowers, white represents snow, and green represents grass. Those colors have a meaning to get the power of nature. Therefore, I used these three colors for my Sushi Cake :)
---------------------------------
Sushi Cake for Hinamatsuri
Difficulty: Medium
Time: 20min
Number of servings: 4 people = 15cm (6inch) round cake pan
Ingredients:
green/white/pink Sushi rice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRBhl0baHQ8
Kinshi Tamago (shredded egg crepe): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRBhl0baHQ8
smoked salmon
cucumber
2 quail eggs
Nori seaweed sheet
Ikura (salmon roe)
Sakura Denbu (pink colored seasoned shredded codfish)
Directions:
1. Wet the cake pan (or line with plastic wrap). Place the crab meat Sushi rice and press down flat with a rice paddle or a spoon. Then place the white Sushi rice and the Aonori Sushi rice one after another and flatten as well. Turn the cake pan upside down onto a plate to remove the rice.
2. Make a thin ribbon of cucumber for Odairisama (prince)'s Kimono and slice the leftover into thin rounds.
3. Cut out the egg crepe and make a scepter and a fan. Thinly slice the leftover.
4. Place the cucumber slices and shredded egg crepe on the Sushi cake. Wrap the quail eggs with a cucumber ribbon (prince) and smoked salmon (princess). Let them hold the scepter (prince) and the fan (princess). Cut out Nori sheet to make their faces. Attach their hairs with bento picks. Garnish with Ikura and Sakura Denbu to finish.
* お雛様 (ohinasama: princess) holds a fan called 扇子 (sensu) in both hands.
* お内裏様 (odairisama: prince) holds a flat wooden scepter called 笏 (shaku) symbolic of his rank in his right hand.
