A big party for my 1st birthday.  The people coming are those who care about me most, including Shan, Sherry, Terry, Kathy, RC, Katie, Bryna, Ram, Sandhya, and Sindhu.  I received many new toys.
Another 1st time: I ate fish today.

We went to Oxford with my god-parents Shan and Sherry to check some big houses. On the way back, dad bought another child safety gate.  He setup 2 gates and allow me to play only in the living room.

I am now 1 year and 1 month old.  I had my 1st class in the town library: "Baby Me".  Many kids came with their moms to sing together.
