Today's date is one of my two favorite dates in the year.
"Daddy I woke up", said Luna with her usual cute voice. She ran towards me to offer a good-morning hug like everyday. "Daddy what day is today?", she asked, "It's your birthday Lulu", I answered with a smile, "Correct!", she replied.
3rd of January-a snowy day. Me and Luna went out to have a happy-birthday meal in a cozy restaurant. "Daddy, what're we going to eat?", asked Luna, "We're gonna find out", i replied, "ok", she said, as we were entering the restaurant. We got ourselves a table to sit at, then we were handed the menu. Minutes later, "Daddy let's have pizza!", said Luna enthusiastically, "alright then", i said. We ordered a small pizza for BabyLu and a medium one for me. After we had finished our meal that didn't get us full, a waiter came towards us with a birthday cake. He placed it on our table, and we were the center of attention. I started, "Happy birthday to you-", everyone joined, "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Luna"( her name was on the cake so those who could see it, said it), "Happy birthday to you", Luna was covering her mouth with her hands, and i could tell she was happy, then i told her to blow out the candles and make a wish, and so she did. "Daddy, do I have to tell you what i wished for?", Lulu asked, "No, you keep your birthday wishes as a secret", I told her, then she nodded understanding and smiled.
After having fun on Luna's 6th birthday, we went back home. I went to my bedroom and brought out a small-sized bag that I couldn't decorate or else she was going to find out. "Daddy what's that you're holding?", I told her to come and see by herself. She ran towards me and sat on the floor to open the box. "Daddy it's a princess dress! and a crown!Those are for me?", she said happily, "Happy birthday darling", "Thank you, thank you so much Daddy", she said then sat on my lap and gave a tight hug.
She yawned, so I carried her upstairs to her bedroom, put her on her bed, put the cover on, kissed her forehead, then went out. I headed to my bedroom. I sat on the edge of the bed and closed my eyes slowly, then opened them again also slowly. Then I stood up and raised the mattress of the bed and took out a framed photo, stared at it for moments."It's been six years. Six years".
