As the white pouch is possibly full of babies, Sam convinced me to put it outside yesterday.Happy Birthday Sam!We splashed out on some red wine which I haven't had for months...Sam enjoyed it too!On Saturday night we had a party and managed to convince everyone to wear a hat.Sam tries to pull off gangster cool....Though I think my hat has more bling!We played pass the parcelbut with daresand dancingVirack won best hat prize with his homemade, colourful hatOur landlord's daughterPretty in pinkZac's hat made from 100 Riel notesGuessing Sam's age in various picturesEnjoying some rum at the end of the nightFor his present, I asked our local signwriter to make him a sign in Khmer of the four compassions in Buddhism which roughly translate as: empathy; loving kindness; the feeling you get when you see the reduction in suffering of others; and equanimity.Sponsor Us
