BoyKulit parties!

Last Sunday, we attended my Godson's 1st birthday. It was the usual, fast food party, games, kids, toys. But one thing that really made me super proud of my BoyKulit that day is his ability to retain instructions given at a short period of time. See, he joined a parlor game where you had to pass a small ball around a circle of kids while doing something. When the music stops and the ball is in your hand, then you're out. It was funny because the host was giving instructions in Tagalog and she had to translate everything for BK. We were thinking he's gonna lose coz he wouldn't understand since it was pretty complicated for a 2.11 yr old kid. But he just nodded yes after the host translated and asked him if he got it.
So the game started with the player rubbing the ball on his tummy before passing it on to the next one. Everybody was surprised and laughing that he got it right, then it started getting harder;

- rub tummy, pat on head then pass

- rub tummy, pat on head, rub arm, pass

- rub tummy, pat on head, rub arm, rub knee, pass

- rub tummy, pat on head, rub arm, rub knee, rub shoulder, pass
- rub tummy, pat on head, rub arm, rub knee, rub shoulder, rub foot, pass

- rub tummy, pat on head, rub arm, rub knee, rub shoulder, rub foot, turn around, pass

- rub tummy, pat on head, rub arm, rub knee, rub shoulder, rub foot, turn around, wiggle body ,pass

- rub tummy, pat on head, rub arm, rub knee, rub shoulder, rub foot, turn around, wiggle body, rub butt, pass


And every single time he got it right (well, he might've missed some but I don't want to get too technical, you know? hehehe) and he didn't get caught with the ball! I was sooooo amazed and proud I wanted to cry. The audience were all laughing and rooting for him on the last round, it was BK and his Ate Frances (his kinakapatid) who were the left.

Guess who won? =)
