Buddha's Day

It's the 'Buddha's day' today(the actual day) and when I remembered that Renee's once said that she wanted to make an offering of fruits/flowers to Buddha, I told her last night that she could go take some of her money out from the coin bank and do so today.

Initially, she took 9 out and I told her they're good enough to pay for some fruits + flowers and could even give the balance to the donation box. Then she began to take more out and said that she wanted to donate more(even all in her coin bank!). Papa gently reminded/teased her that she'd need to check if she's got enough for herself and perhaps knowing that she won't need them(now), she said, "nevermind...".

Then, she said she wanted to draw something for Buddha and she did this(nothing much, no time, less than 5 mins 'cos it's past bed time already) :

*she had wanted to drop this drawing into the donation box as well but I told her that it might not be nice to do so since it's mainly for donations and I suggested that she 'show' it to Buddha instead. However, she didn't get to do that cos it was left in my bag and we forgot about it after our lunch :(

And for all the days she's been requesting for papa to pick her up late from school(so she could play with her friends), she asked to be picked up earlier today 'cos she wanted to give her offerings to Buddha and pray, :).
