1. He started singing Happy birthday and that reminded him of balloons, so he found some and made me blow them. He then bounced them on a paper knife bursting each one of them!
2. He put together a circuit (using a kit he has) which would play the happy birthday song. Only the song was distorted likely because of weak battery and when he was making the circuit I was screaming at him to get dressed up for first day of school. Oops!
3. He told me in the evening that he really wanted to make a card for me but the teacher didn't let him. I can imagine he would have been shy and awkward and his teacher must be managing a new class with new kids to understand. He did write in his journal about his mom's birthday :) I took a picture of it a few days later - it's super touching.
4. When I had told him its my bday tomorrow, he asked where is it? I said there is no party, you and I will go to a concert. He insisted I have a party like everyone he knows has.
5. He blew the candle of my cake, ate most of it ;) and opened the one physical present I got.
6. Finally, he went to the concert with me even though he didn't really like it, even I didn't really like it. He was one of the few kids there. He was more energetic and cheerful than me during the concert.
In short, he was absolutely adorable! And made my day more special without trying too hard :)
